I've seen lot more new comers on this forum keep saying the same things in the beginning of their journey, after posting a few more posts most of them vanish or loose interest in commenting because they don't acheive what they were aiming to gain from forum when they decide to join at starting, (more common things like merits or getting enrolled into the signature campaign).
 
Few dudes above here already suggested that you should have  some patience, get into meaningful discussion and most importantly you should obey the forum rules. Your rank is kinda like an achievement which definitely grows based on your contributions, what impacts you are contributing into.

Ain't forum a quick money generating scheme but if you do good, be good to others then obviously you may achieve success.

Goodluck.
