New Feature: Kudos!

[LL_Moderator_ks]

Dear Community Members;


Luxury Link is pleased to announce a new feature just launched on the forums: Kudos.
The Kudos feature is a new rating system that allows you to give approval to content that you think is helpful, well formed, insightful, or otherwise generally valuable in the Community. When you give Kudos to a message, you are giving not only a thumbs up for good content, but also a pat on the back to its author. The net effect is to boost the value of the message and enhance the reputation of its author.


Kudos points are counted and displayed on the messages themselves and on leaderboards for each level of the Community. In addition, Kudos Activity pages, available from your profile page, show the kudos you have recently given or received.


In search results, a quick scan of the Kudos column tells you which messages are most likely to be helpful.


You will be able to see the Kudos symbol in the top right corner of each post:




To give a Kudos, simply click on the symbol and you will get the message saying “1 Kudoed: Thanks!”:


As the author of the post you will see you have received a Kudos right on the message page:


All other users will see how many kudos the post has received:





Should you accidentally give a Kudos when you did not mean to, you can go to the Options drop-down menu in the top right-hand corner of the message and choose “Revoke my Kudos from this message”


If there are any questions please feel free to contact me. We hope you find this function useful and that it enhances your enjoyment of the Community!


Cheers,
Katie
