Thanks very much, @JoeRockhead!

Here again is a link to an older post showing disparity in ranking vs post count. Some prolific posters appear stuck at ranks well below what their post count would imply.

A quick search today came up with the following user post counts by rank level. Please note, the search does not capture all current MyFico members for whatever reason. My guess is capture rate is less than 50%. A couple extreme outliers are highlighted.
Rank Level Lowest Count 2nd Highest Highest Count Range Valued 1057 3752 8441 7384 Senior 3042 8518 10732 7690 Super 5754 14509 31002 25248 Mega 15453 19919 20828 5375 Epic 22398 22795 22795 397 Legendary 30426 33989 34405 3979
I've been legendary for a little bit now but most of my stats are way off, compared to table. I think page views and messages read are also important as you get higher in rank.

Interesting data.
I made some downward adjustments to minimum MOL and sign-ins at ranks of Super and above based on your data. Increased minimum Super Contributor posts to 5500 based on other data. See below table for changes.
Per the link in your post, a screen capture shows you were stalled out at Super Contributor until over 24,000 posts. Given your relatively low sign-in count listed above, that criteria might have impeded your rank up. Then you started ranking up again like falling dominos.
I do suspect a missing criteria is either page views or messages read but, not both. Not sure which one to pick as a 4th but leaning toward page views.
P.S. You have a very high ratio of messages read to MOL. A speed reader is among us.

I think page views and messages read are also important as you get higher in rank.
I also jumped from Mega to Legendary - no Epic status at all. This still makes me wonder if the higher ranks must be manually approved. I also ranked up twice, at exactly the same time once, in the beginning. 
The criteria for ranking up is wild here. 🙃
