Re: NEM Official Thread - Redemption ends on 22 November[Updates&Discussion]

I wish I could vote, how many messages does one need in order to obtain the status of "Jr. Member"?

i think its more how long you have been a member rather than how many posts, although i do think it plays a part..

more to the point though, i would say longer than the competition runs for.

That is incorrect. It is entirely the number of posts you make that determines your status. I think it is 50 posts for Jr. Member, 100 for Full Member, 250 for Senior Member, and 500 for Hero Member but I may be wrong about the exact numbers.

I have 3000+ posts but I'm only senior member.. And iv seen senior members with 200 posts but they joined early 2013. Probably a mix of both..

you can only gain a capped amount of activity per day/week. so getting to higher ranks takes time no matter how much you post

It is all explained here. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=177133.0

As far as I understand it, a person gets 1 point per post per day. Points are awarded every two weeks.
