How do I become a top contributor?

Question

For once I'd like to have that badge! I've been here a year, isn't that enough?

Answer 1

You simply have to pine away thousands of hours reading idiotic questions....quit your job....stay on that keyboard at all times.....eat hotpockets right at the computer.....pee your pants if you have to, but for God's sake keep answering those questions.

Answer 2

Perhaps you could ask your questions in the right section. That might help. I'd imagine you'd have to get lots of best answers and ask interesting questions too.

Answer 3

I was doing pretty good until I started answering questions in another category.  Religion and Spirituality is very controversial and difficult to build up a good percentage of "best answers".  I finally came back to a category I have quite a bit of knowledge and experience in, one I find interesting and am doing more research in, and my percentage is slowly going back up.

No matter how long you've been here, what matters is your knowledge and experience on a topic.  Percentage of "best answers" to answers makes the difference.  I'd like a badge too, but I'd rather give good advice.

Answer 4

I think it depends on your frequency of participating in a certain section.  The more you answer questions, the more likely to become a top contributor.  I don't think it has to do with how many best answers you get, but I could be wrong.
