How do you become a "Top Contributor" on yahoo answers?

According to Y!A : "A "Top Contributor" is a member of the Yahoo Answers community who has shown that they are knowledgeable in a certain category. Each user can be a top contributor in a maximum three categories. You earn it or lose it depending on your recent participation in a certain section. The more positively you contribute, the more chance there is that you will get a TC badge. Just like featured users or category leaders, it's another way to give credit to community members." Y!A has never said what the precise requirements are. It's commonly accepted that you need to answer a lot of questions (50?, 100?, who knows...) in a category and get Best Answers on a certain percent of them (probably 10-15%) each week. You can have TC badges in up to 3 categories at a time. There is no TC badge for the Jokes & Riddles and Polls & Surveys categories. TC badges are based on your recent activity, not your level or total points, how long you've been here or your overall BA %. :o)

It's really no big deal. Yahoo has a secret complicated formula involving percentages and best answers to arrive at how someone receives the designation. There are lots of rumours as to what that percentage is but in fact, only YA knows for sure and they aren't telling. One Monday morning the day updating is done you log in and surprise you are a TC. The best way to earn it is to concentrate on answering in up to three categories where you might have some knowledge. "Polls & Surveys" and "Jokes & Riddles" do not have the designation. . if you don't keep your percentage up you can lose the designation.There are no special privileges. In reality having the designation can sometimes be a problem since there are trolls out there who constantly look for violations or perceived violations by TCs to report their posts. http://help.yahoo.com/l/au/yahoo7/answers/network/contributor.html

A Top Contributor is someone who participates in a Catagory Quite often to Become a Top Contributor what you got to do is find a catagory that you like and answer questions in that catagory quite often and get lots of best answers and you can get into the top Contributor Category as well hope i helped

A lot of best answers in one or more categories. Choose one or more categories you know a lot about and concentrate on them.

Just give good answers and try to get best answer in a certain section. On my old account I was Top Contributor in Video & Online games.
