I found the new ranking requirement is not logic. It requires way too many merit points in order to gain higher rankings. For example, I am a Member now, and from Member to Full Member:
~
After almost 1 year of merit system from what I can see at the actual state of the system, is to easy to get junior rank status, and is way to hard to get hero + status, especially legendary when you need 500 merit but if you are lucky only 250~ activity more than hero.
Decreasing the merit for legendaries to 800 could be a good thing, as always what is the difference from earning 0-800 merit to 0-1000? Is the 800 merit earner don't deserve the rank when we have many legendaries shitposting everyday? (free status with almost 0 merits earned on 1 year?)
