C# Corner community is all about sharing, caring and earning. For every contribution you make on the site, you earn points. Members also get the prestigious MVP based on their points earned during the current year. See MVP page for more details. Once you accumulate enough points, you may redeem for prizes and other benefits. Member ranking is based on the points earned by a user from his/her contributions. The rankings is represented in the form of membership levels categorized as Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze and Starter.
This platform employs a member ranking system that determines a member's standing. This ranking is determined by the points accrued through a member's contributions. Member ranks are fluid and undergo monthly adjustments based on their ongoing contributions.
A member with consistent contributions over the past one year is considered an active member. If a member remains inactive for more than one year, their rank is dropped, and they are removed from the Active Members page and ranking system.
An email reminder system is in place for inactive members, following this schedule: 30-day reminder: A message prompts the member to become active within the next 30 days to maintain their rank. 45-day reminder: Another reminder is sent. 60-day reminder: A final reminder, with a grace period of one week. If there's no response, the member is declared inactive, and their rank drops. Grace Period: Members with a rank can request a grace period for personal reasons, allowing them to maintain their rank for up to 90 days if they are currently busy. Rank Calculation: Inactive members experience a gradual decline in rank. When they become active again, their rank is based on their current contributions, not their previous rank. Removal of Inactive Members: Members inactive for 12 months are removed from the ranking system. To regain their rank, they must make significant contributions over a period. Rank History: A member's rank history, including their points, is stored and displayed. Exclusive Members: Certain members who contribute behind the scenes, such as platform management and chapter support, are considered active regardless of content contributions. Their contributions can be added manually through an admin/editor dashboard. Such members must notify the team to make sure their contributions are added to the system.
