As the result, in order to cut down on the number of useless posts observed in forums that started after rewards system introduction, a new requirement has been suggested by a moderator group. The requirement was put in place today. From now on, users to have a minimum number of Kudos in order to progress through the levels in the GMAT Club Rewards and continue earning points. What this means is that members will not be able to reach a particular level, for example, Gold level without having at least 50 Kudos. If you are in this situation, your point earning will suspend until you are able to earn the sufficient number of kudos. If you are wondering how to improve your Kudos situation, consider posting helpful posts that go beyond chit-chat or simple question replies. Think about what you would give Kudos for and it won't take long until your efforts are rewarded. The following Kudos requirements have been set in place: 1 Bronze 0 kudos 2 Silver 25 kudos 3 Gold 50 kudos 4 Platinum 100 kudos 5 Diamond 200 kudos Rewards Terms and Conditions: By using the GMAT Club Rewards system, you agree to the following terms and conditions. GMAT Club reserves the right to change the terms of this promotion/offering without prior notice. Prizes may be subject to change and some prizes are limited in quantity. Point-earning is not retroactive. Points can only be earned after the introduction of activities/badges/rewards; previous activities/purchases do not qualify. All redemptions are final. Points cannot be combined between multiple accounts or transferred from account to account. GMAT Club staff, experts, tutors, or test-prep/admissions consulting representatives are not eligible for reward redemptions; they can still earn points, however. The names and trademarks are owned by their respective owners. Once you redeem a reward, GMAT Club will provide you with instructions to activate/claim it via email or private message on the forum. Redemptions must be used or activated within 30 days of redemption. In some cases if schedule, locations, or specific offerings are not available for your redemption, we will work with you to provide an offering of equal or greater value or offer you a points refund. Some redemptions may be limited by time or usage, such as only available one per user. We hope that our reward system will encourage collaboration and fosters a healthy competitive setting; if we see abuse of the system, we will change it to better suit our mission and purpose.

I have been taking timers for last 10 days, after redeeming my points but there are no changes in my points even after taking more than 20 timers daily can you look inot this.

Regards

Thanks

Hi sidd13 ,

I checked your profile and found that you have reached the upper limit of Bronze Badge.

Now, your points will increase once you reach the next badge level, which is silver.

But the requirement for Silver is : 100 point + 25 kudos.

You still have to get 7 more kudos to be eligible for next level.

Does that make sense?

Hi bb

Thanks for the great efforts, I have 99 points and 11 Kudos, so I still need 14 Kudos and 1 point to move to the silver tier. I noticed that I don't earn points for more than 2 days, is this because I still need 14 Kudos? and if this is the case would I earn my lost points retroactively?

Thanks,
NNDD

Hi NNDD ,

You need 9 more kudos to start earning points and there will not be any retroactivity. You will start earning points from the day when you will have 25 kudos.

Thanks.

Why can't I increase from 99 points to 100 points through solving questions with timer? I solved questions but the point stops at 99 and couldn't go up. What should I do?

Hello Kimrani,

I already replied the solution to the issue above. The terms of the forum changed in April. You need to reach 25 kudos to reach 100 pts. Refer to this post. Screenshot of the notice.

Hello bb,

I spend 25+25 kudos to claim GMATCLUB test twice, and now only have 31 kudos. I understand that in order to proceed to next tier, the kudos earned is counted.

But, its showing that I need more 69 kudos to reach next tier. Is there any reason for such...

Cheers..

Well... it is not perfect since you did earn 81 kudos but that's how it works at the moment. It takes your Kudos counts for the time being not what you have earned in the past. We will fix next time we update the rewards system sometime in Dec/Jan.
