    We are excited to announce a big new feature called Community Points. This system allows users to earn points based on their activity. Earning points allows you to earn ranks and improve your community reputation!

    This feature will also help users explore the system and test out specific features. Below are the types of activities you can do to earn points.

    Later, we will introduce a way to spend your points on achievement badges and ranks!

    This is a great reward and recognition structure. We’ll have to evaluate what our levels are as we grow (wiht pints0 and what the “badges” or rewards are as well.

      How the system works is you “spend” your points on badges, titles, etc. The nice thing there is the user can choose which ones they want instead of it being automatically forced on them.

      We haven’t built that out yet though. We need to decide what those rewards are and then build out the UI for spending points.
