How long have you been on Mahalo Answers? How long do you think it will take you to get to Purple Belt?

It took me 22 days

Mind you, I have been on this site for approx 3 to 4 hours on the average (min) everyday since I started.

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

A belt really I don't need, strong within me my kung fu is.

I have been on here from the beginning. I think it will probably take me 4 - 6 months because I only answer a handful of questions a day. The "real" job gets in the way of that :)

Well, the goal when we started would be at least four weeks for purple and two or three months for brown.

Seems like the most dedicated folks are doing 200-300 points a day. So, 10 days to purple if you're dedicated. If you're average I'm guessing 100 points a day so 20 days. We're going to have to keep raising the points as we go... for now it's fine, but truth be told I thought the first purple belts would be Jan 15th+ and first brown end of February!

Congratulations you made it!

anyway, we will be adding tests as we go. As we discussed in another thread we will have a best answer minimum for each level too soon I think. So, you would have to get 2k points and 20 best answers for purple (or something like that).

Have I mentioned yet that I appreciate the cruel way you allow me to get almost to the next belt level before you pull it out of reach? Last time I had REACHED purple before you raised the bar and stripped me of the belt. This time I came within 200 points of reaching brown before you changed the points.

I'm not saying it's a conspiracy....
Wait, yes, yes I am saying it's a conspiracy.

Congratulations on the purple belt!

I've been here thirteen days. I predict I'll be at purple belt within seven days. My answer quality has gone up a lot, and I've found that answering fewer questions in a more thought-out fashion has led to more points and money instead of less.

Congratulations! Since December 17th, 2008. Almost two weeks, so I believe I can get it in 3 weeks if I keep it up!

15 days so far. If I stay interested, it will be about 7 weeks. That's a big if.

I've been here 8 days, and I think I probably will never get a purple belt, but I congratulate you on yours!

(I am almost to green, though, hoorah.)
