About Community Ranks

[Noemi Balogh]

Some members become vital parts of daily conversations over the years. We value your contribution to Graphisoft Community - you make this place special and an important source of knowledge for many professionals. As a small recognition, we want to highlight your efforts here, so like most online communities, we also use a series of ranks.

How ranks work

Based on your activity in our Community, we count your contribution. The more active you are, the higher rank you can achieve in the system. Some of the activities our system automatically measures are:

• Registration age
• Minutes online
• Number of sign-ins
• Number of posts created
• Accepted solutions granted

On Graphisoft Community, we have two sets of ranks - one measures the most active and vocal members, while the other recognizes our silent contributors. In both cases, freshly registered members start as "Newcomers."
