See you in your next rank update "Sr.member" to "Hero member". Anyway congratulations on your new rank and you truly deserved mate

Thanks a lot for the kind words!

Like I said earlier, I don't know why but once I was lacking merit to rank up, I saw it like a challenge and put in more time into my posts. Looks like it paid off.
You're a good example for demoted newbies. When you put extra effort before starting a thread merits will come eventually and no need for begging or complaining.
Yes, I think the best thing anyone who wants to rank-up should follow is to never give up and be involved in everything.
