lately bitcointalk has made several changes related to the rules in the forum, such as adding a merit system that is currently implemented, so that it requires getting merit so that rank becomes jr again, but I also suggest to see the link so that everything becomes clearer
Hi,
I'm not entirely sure but as far as I know you need at least 1 merit to get your Jr Member rank back.
However I'd recommend checking out the Meta-Section for more information:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=24.0but I'm sure, the things that bitcointalk does are right and useful to narrow the scamer's space
