Know Energy-modeling? Prove it!
A lot of you are awesome energy-modelers. Now you can prove it. Recently, we sent out a survey which a number of you had participated in. Enough of you asked about Userpoints and how to get them and what they do. We did some brainstorming and decided to revamp userpoints and make the process as simple as possible. A few weeks ago, the top users were basically 3 people, and everyone else was near a tie, we decided to reset the board!
What do your Userpoints do for you?
- Earn a reputation as a great modeler
- Points = equal power
(for example, allowing you to edit other users’ posts, or create your own blog entries).
How do you get userpoints?
- It’s simple: Post on the forum and answer forum questions.
- Vote on the best forum topics and replies
When others vote for your post or your answer, you get 1 point. If they vote your answer down, you lose 1 point
So give it a try! You’ll be helping the entire community and earning acknowledgement for helping others.
