Is there any information about what "Rankings" mean here?
How do you achieve a certain rank?
Is there something that comes with certain ranks, other than the title on your profile?

Community Rankings

While some communities will show the rankings in a table, best practice suggests it's not a good idea to reveal how to get to a certain rank as some users will try to game the system. I personally also don't think its wise to show the ranking names as it removes the element of surprise and delight when a user is notified that they have ranked up.
Julie will be able to tell you whether ranking up here on the Lithium Community offers perks, but I don't believe so.

Thanks for the reply JasonHill
Gosh, best practices are to come up with a bunch of rankings, give them cool names, notify people when they've "ranked up," and display them on their profiles....but not say what they are, or even what order they're in, let alone how to achieve them.
How motivating....

Hi wittier Jason is correct regarding best practices and that on our community, moving up in the rank structure will not open up new permissions. Additional permissions/perks are granted based on the account status: customers, partners, employees or Lithium Stars, will have more/different permissions than other community members.
Hope this answers your question,
