How member achievements are calculated

Achievements show how much you take part in the life of the exchange: how complete your profile and company page are, your listings, publications and reviews. The points are awarded by the site for what you do. Below is everything they add up from.

Limits

  • Points for one and the same action are capped per day and per month.
  • Bulk postings do not bring endless points: the more of the same kind you publish, the smaller the gain.
  • Messages only count when the exchange is mutual: sending one message brings nothing.
  • Deleted and outdated listings stop earning points.
  • A review of yourself does not count, and a withdrawn "helpful" mark takes the point back.
  • Points are deducted for spam and violations.

Achievements are recalculated every night. Low review scores do not reduce your activity rating: these are two different scales.
