I was wondering how the point system works for this community.   I see some people that are brand new at 600 points, then people who have topics and comments at only a few points.   I can see when I am active, points being added.


Can someone confirm if this is correct. I am assuming if you are not active your points go down month after month.  I am also at the assumption when you are a new member you are starting around 500-600 points.

 

I joined a while ago and wasn’t active for a bit, so I’m just trying to make sense of why brand new users have so many more points :) 

 

 

Update.. I left work yesterday and have 31 new points. I doubt I have 31 new likes, so perhaps it does do the daily sync after all!.

 

Hopefully this is helpful to anyone that searches going forward. 

Thank you for the update, @Scott !😊


At the time the forum points sync was introduced, the sync happened around 12pm each day.

Burst my bubble will ya! haha

 

To do a real test I'll need the time zone 🤣

😎 Kseniya didn’t tell me the timezone at this time. I assume it’s the timezone where the community is hosted. And no, I don’t know where it is hosted.

I have asked the same question at the time the integration was new and the answer was the points are synchronized each day around 12 pm.

 


This was/is a great thread! 😂 Some things I already knew...quite a bit I ddin’t. Thanks for the addtional info @Madi.Cristil , @Rick Vanover , and host of others.


@Scott 8am GMT is when I’ve noticed the points import from R&D 😊 don’t know how it tracks to any daylight savings however.
