Once you fulfill the other criteria for becoming a Top Contributor, they’ll check. One of those criteria is being a full Member though, so I would focus on that before worrying about a title like Top Contributor. :slightly_smiling_face:

Let’s simply.

How to become a Top Contributor from visitor

  1. [AUTO] Meet the requirements for new member and gain the correct trust level. Ref A

  2. [AUTO] Similar to point 1, head up to being a full member. Ref A, the specifics are not known. Guides like How to become a full member can help

  3. [AUTO] Meet the requirements defined by Top Contributor. Ref B

  4. [MAN] Once step 3 is met, a staff member will review your contributions. To quote from Ref B

  1. If you’re successful; congrats! You should be given the flare; and auto joined the group

In the end, there is not much known but in a simpler sense, this is how you go from top to bottom.
