| Self-Made Legendary: | Activity: 800, gets 5 gold coins under his name of which the last is half DarkTurquoise(For example) |  | 2000 |
I see no reason to lower Activity requirements, before the Merit system users had to "wait" for years to earn Legendary status too.
There are not that many people in the situation indicated in the OP (enough merits but not enough activity to rank-up). I make it (as of last Friday):
- 8 Heroes, lacking at least the minimum current value of the range necessary to become Legendary.
- 19 Sr. Members lacking activity for Hero.
- 15 Full Members lacking activity for Sr. Member.
- 23 Members lacking activity for Full Member.
I've seen a few users with loads of Merit and low Activity, that makes it very likely their posts are worth reading.- 8 Heroes, lacking at least the minimum current value of the range necessary to become Legendary.
- 19 Sr. Members lacking activity for Hero.
- 15 Full Members lacking activity for Sr. Member.
- 23 Members lacking activity for Full Member.
