Member Recognition & Leaderboards

Sophos recognizes the importance of user contributions in the Community. The Member Recognition & Leaderboard section is designed to recognize and thank these individuals for their invaluable contributions that are key to the success of the Sophos Community.

  • Check out the Community Leaderboards here!

How do Leaderboards work? 

You can gain points by engaging and contributing to the Sophos Community. The more points you earn, the higher you rank on the leaderboard. 

Listed below are the several ways you can gain points in the Sophos Community: 

Earn points by completing your Sophos Community Profile. 

  • Sign up for an account - 5 points 
  • Add a profile photo – 5 points 
  • Add a bio – 5 points 
  • Add location – 5 points 
  • Add a cover photo – 5 points 

Get to know the Community and earn points by subscribing and engaging in different topics. 

  • Create a forum thread – 10 points 
  • Subscribe to a forum – 1 point 
  • Answer/comment on a forum post – 20 points 
  • Get upvoted for a comment – 1 point per upvote 

As you rank up, you earn recognition, rewards, and Member Achievement Awards that will be displayed on your profile. 

Climb up the leaderboard and get recognized for your expertise. 

Lead as an expert in your field and earn recognition through Spotlight Features, blog announcements, and other rewards. 

Note: 

  • Users that game this system will be warned once, and if they do it again, they will be banned 
  • The points system is subject to change at any time without prior notice 
  • For more info on Product Documentation suggestions, please see this page. 

Leaderboards and points accumulation are not updated in real-time, so if you believe you should have a higher total than what is currently showing, be patient, it will update by the next day. You can also see a breakdown of your points by going to your profile and then clicking on your points total. 

 

  

We believe this feature will incentivize more users to participate, making our community a better support resource for our products.  

If you have any suggestions on how to improve the leaderboard experience, please let us know in the Community Chat forum.
