It is still a bit confusing. Does it mean that to get to Gold from 0 club mile, you have to fly 30K miles first to get to Silver and then an additional 60K to get to Gold? It'll make the total miles to achieve Gold 90K miles. Is it correct?
If this is the way it works, to get to Diamond, it will take someone with 0 club mile initially a total of 210K miles (30K + 60K + 120K). Sounds very tough.
It is also very different comparing to the other frequent flyer programs. For example, it only takes someone 100K miles (in total) during Jan 01 to Dec 31 to get to the top tier for Air Canada Aeroplan.
