Good Morning rich47.

Thank you for your inquiry and its a pleasure hearing from you again. Our point system has been implemented to reward members based on their contributions within AGORACOM. By being appointed a Hub Leader you may have noticed a significant jump in your Ranking Points.

Furthermore by adding links to any HUBS library, uploading photos or editing a Company's profile you accumulate more activity points.

AGORACOM members achieve their rating on two premises; their Activity Points and member rating (referring to how other AGORACOM member's rate your posts within the community). We then multiply these two numbers and achieve ones Ranking Points. Please note that Ratings are both positively and negatively correlated.

You can accumulate both positive activity points (from posting, uploading images to a HUB et al) and negative activity points (if you get ignored). Your rating is also affected by the five star rating system; you can increase in rating with consecutive four or five star votes or you can decrease with a string of ones.

To learn more about the ranks within AGORACOM and our ranking system please consult http://www.AGORACOM.com/help.

Thank you again for your inquiry and your contributions within the AGORACOM community.

Regards,

AGORACOM
