Upcoming Changes to Forum Ranks and Badges

[webcut]

I believe there must have a solid contribution. Only react, thank you, congratulations won't be effective.

How about if you make rules like there must be a solid post or comment with certain words count or sentence count. Because anyone can achieve points by just saying thank you, congratulations etc. 

Better way, you can set some character or word limit for posting to get the point. Also there must be some rules for spamming behaviour.

Thanks 🙂

Adjusting the point system to reward comments rather than reactions could enhance the overall system.

Hi @Kesha - Will there be any changes to the post limit (and will private messages continue to count towards the post limit)? I know several regulars on the forum who still have their 5-post-a-day limit. Some of these regulars have been on the forum for years now. Is there any way for this post limit to be removed for these users?

It would also be nice for the private messages not to count towards the post limit. If we do limit the private messages, it can have its own daily limit.

This is the best idea sure. I think there should not have any post limit. May be they can limit the word or character limit or award less point. But still post is effective than react.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We just upped the limit to 10 posts. Plus, we will continue to explore more ways to have a generous posting limit, while also minimizing spam.

Great @Kesha Thanks.

I have another suggestion. In Fiverr some categories have different gig showing. Like writing in the first and image at the last. That type of gig really not charming at all. There also not possible to see how many order pending.

 

Will these update stay longer or that type of gig will change to previous gig display.

Is it considered spam when a user continually posts one or two emojis without saying anything?

Yes. That's why it isn't the best idea to give everyone this: ⬇️

I was only mentioning regulars on the forum who proved that they were valuable contributors to the forum:

I wouldn't mind if new users were limited to 3-posts a day for two weeks, 5-posts a day for 3 months, 10-post-a-day after 6 months, and unlimited after a year (and only if they are in good standing on the forum without any warnings, or very few warnings).

I think so, as you have described in your post. Not only thanks, like emojis and congratulations can be effective but also you should write  . If anyone writes their own opinions into quotes, it can be very beneficial for their forum contribution. Thanks a lot for your valuable articles.

Thanks for all the valuable feedback, everyone. Of course, our goal is to make badges valuable to all users and it's not in our intention to promote or reward spammy content. Before launching, we will make adjustments based on your suggestions.

You are most welcome @Kesha

Badges are useful because, it shows how active a person is. It also shows how much active the person has been in the community and has a acceptance with his/her written words.

As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance the forum, we are planning updates to ranks and badges and would love your feedback before we start this next change. 

First off, we will be condensing the ranks to enhance their significance and manageability. The new ranking system will include five ranks: Newbie, Rising Star, Experienced, Mentor, and Veteran.

The exact amount of points required for each rank is still being determined, but we would like to note that after we implement the changes, you will notice your ranking adjust accordingly.

Additionally, we plan to simplify the amount of available badges, so that users will be able to earn the following badges: 

• First Post- Awarded upon a user's first thread creation. 
• Well Followed- Awarded when a user gains at least 15 followers.
• Conversation Starter- Awarded to users who start five or more threads. 
• Dedicated- Awarded to users who start at least 20 threads.
• Posting Machine- Awarded to users who start at least 50 threads.
• Very Popular- Awarded to users who receive 25 comments or more on a thread they've started.
• Active Contributor- Awarded to users who post at least 30 comments.

These badges will be automatically granted when users meet the specified requirements. Additionally, moderators will be able to manually award badges such as Community Champion, Best Answer, and Most Valuable Feedback.

Plus, to ensure only factual information is being disseminated throughout the forum, moderators will begin correcting inaccurate posts and then marking them with a “Fiverr Official Edit” icon. 

These changes aim to create a more enjoyable and user-friendly forum. We welcome your thoughts on these upcoming adjustments!
 

I'm glad you found the post helpful! I thoroughly read through it myself and found the Fiverr update particularly interesting. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for your clear explanation.
