WA Ranking

For me and I am only in since July 2017, I find the ranking quite motivating. It is just another element of what makes WA work. I am contributing as always and working my websites and training. But since Monday week, the ranking has remained the same. I would recommend keeping it as a tool for motivating members. If something is wrong fix with it, fix it.

My queries are why has the rank stopped as it has in my case stopped since Monday week last, since I am continuing my work at answering and contributing to the site and it hasn't changed. Curiously, I was unable to be online yesterday and this would have resulted in a slight fall in ranking before, my number is still the same.

As a newcomer to this site, the way that all of us can contribute and it effects our ranking is a very attractive tool. IF someone is caught abusing it, then possibly they can be removed but as a benefit to the site, I think it has a great benefit. We should think long and hard about removing it. But WA should try and ensure that the ranking works.

My individual ranking of Helper, Creator, and Activity have all risen and yet my ranking remains the same. How is this? Is that right? Is that why is supposed to happen? I don't know if it is, but that is my position now.

My rank improved slightly from yesterday. I agree that rank is important but not the overriding factor

I agree, it is a bit of a motivator. But remember it has nothing to do with the success of your website. I haven't heard any reference to eliminating it, so just keep on doing what you enjoy. Debbie

Governance is required to use it as a tool to meter and showcase your work here Anything else is necessary obsession!

Since the 21st of August mine has not changed and there were days I wasn't on here and days where I was for better part of a day and just like you, I was doing work, answering questions and contributing as a whole to the WA. I had contacted Carson about it and I was assured that it was just the new ranking system. I was also sent a link regarding the Ambassadors ranking. I think that there is definitely something wrong with it but they are sure what to do with about it. I have also been watching people I help and regularly converse with and all their ranks have not changed as well. I am sure they will fix it soon enough. I too like it as a way to gauge my advancements but that's the only thing I like it for as I don't learn from it and it doesn't make me money but it does drive you to keep lowering that number. Not to worry, they do know about it and they are working on it. I just think they should send out a post just to stop everyone from worrying about it. I am glad that someone finally went public about it.

There are days I experience that too and I don't worry about it since I know it is all automated system. The ranking is not something individually picked but your overall activity is being evaluated and assessed by an algorithm of WA.

So just contribute what you think is helpful and let the system work its task.

I have found the same Maurice. However, I am not too bothered even though it is always nice to see our ranking improve.

The real measure of success is what is happening with our businesses. If we are working consistently on that then other things take care of themselves.

All the best :)

I believe one of the tweaks to the algorithm is that it now takes more time and requires a certain level of consistent behaviour before rank changes, so as to avoid any "instant gratification" that many gamers crave.

If you keep doing what you're doing, helping others to succeed here at WA, I've no doubt your rank will improve dramatically over time. :)
