Level req's?

Colin Yamamoto_1

Hey guys,

I got a notification yesterday and it said 'Congratulations! You've been promoted to Level 2.' And now by my name are two little stars. Does anyone know exactly what i did to get these? I see some of you have 3-4-5 stars so do any of you know how these levels work and what they mean?

Thank you :)

There is definitely a direct correlation between points and stars: up to 50 points is one star, 51 to 100 points is two stars, 101 to 500 points is three stars, and above 500 points is four stars. I'm basing this on a quick trawl through profiles:

002 1

044 1

052 2

086 2

108 3

404 3

504 4

994 4

As to how points are awarded, I got nuttin'.

The more you participate, the more bling you get?

It doesn't do anything, beyond possibly make me look more authoritative. Or something.

@Julia Szent-Györgyi

you have 4 stars and you have tons of badges, comments, etc. Do you know roughly when you hit your milestones in stars?

Julia Szent-Györgyi

No, I'm sorry, but like Paul W, I'm rather underwhelmed by the whole badges-and-stars thing, so I haven't kept track of how stars and points and whatnot correspond. It says I attained level 4 on Oct. 2, but that's as far back as I can get, and I can't look up how many points or other stuff I had then. And there are no dates attached to badges.

I got promoted to Level 4 today but I don't know what the trigger was. If it means anything to anyone, no one has told me. I found this discussion while searching for some explanation.

@dontiknowyou, in the About section of your profile, what does it currently say for Points?
