Can someone explain to me this:

activity = min(time * 14, posts)

what is min and what is "comma" posts. I just never seen a comma in an equation so I am not sure what to make out of it. Smiley

I wouldn't overly concern yourself with the formula as it is confusing, but basically it's saying you can only get 14 activity points every two weeks and to get those you need to make the 14 posts. However, you only need to make one post in each activity period to get the potential merit activity and you can collect the rest later by making the required posts. Everything is explained here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2766177.0

Where exactly does it say the merits that are needed for Hero and Legendary? I remember Full member being at least 100 merits, but this thread doesn't mention the required merits, only the activity.

Also, I don't get why Legendary should be within a range of numbers. Isn't this a little unfair?

I'm not sure why theymos made it random but I think Legendary should be fixed at 960 merit to follow the format of the other accounts. I also think a new rank should be added at 1920 activity but maybe make it a very high merit requirement so only the best of posters achieve it.
