This is not to brag about myself. There is already a thread which
somebody else started to do that for me; and anyway, the number below my name speaks for me, in and of myself. Rather, I am offering an object demonstration in support of my suggestion that
merit requirements for the highest ranks are far too easy.I have a question to you: Do you know more people with approximate results as your own? (i mean newbies, not theymos or Lauda

)
If you don't know such people (only in that case), that only means that you are exception. In that case all your idea don't have
any sense. Because your speach sounds like the speech of sportsmen who want people to do 200 kg chest press just because he can.
At first to do something we must know that amount of merit is not enough. Not just for one or two or three persons.
And why just 1500 for hero? I think 7000 for hero and 70 000 for legendary will be nice. In that case you will be
really proud of your rank
In fact, it's sounds like "
I achieved so much, it's to easy for
me. So change please it for
all"
But i will agree with advanced number of merit for Jr.member and member
