Re: Why don't I appear as TOP XP Author?

How exactly does XP translate to level? I know I’ve gained more XP than another person, but they’re a little higher in Rank.

@hayhorFor someone who does not know, you are pretty far up the board of forum dwellers otherwise known as top XP contributors!

@DarthValtrex, makes sense. Explains why the top 3 usually stays in top 3 for weeks on end.

@Sir_Named the more XP you gain, across the boards, the faster lvling up goes. 

I meant it in a good way. You want to be forum flashy. Not the negative no-substance one you likely think about. There’s probs a better word but its almost 5am so my brain is fried

@Koochi-Qvolume, you were actually above me for a few weeks, I think you were top 3. Just a few days ago you have something like 10-15 more XP then I did. I think it's the volume they post and the content. I also think it might have to do with some people follow certain members more than others.

I try to read as many posts as I can, but it's a lot to read/respond too. So I prioritize responding to the OP and skim the responses. It depends on the discussion though. Some discussion are debates in which you need to read all responses, some are just questions of "how do I" or "I need help with" and some are extended discussions such as this.

I honestly would not be surprised if you pass me up again, your posts are always entertaining. haha

@Koochi-Q I have a theory about this, but I'm only allowed one flight of fancy a day, and I've used that up already in another post 😃

@Koochi-QThat’s what I thought, but how would my level be lower than someone if I have more XP?
(To be clear, we’re at the same level, but the other person has more progress.)

Edit☹️To be even more clear, I’m talking about total XP.)

@DarthValtrexLolz I dont think anybody would really want a top spot that badly xD.

@Sir_NamedI dont know if badges also give xp but that it doesn’t recognize it as XP. Maybe thats why. Or if different games have different xp counters. Cause I was also on the plants vs zombies EA answers forum. Lets say if I contribute there, it goes to my overall account but maybe a pvz xp counter is in place, like there would be an apex one. This is all speculation tho. A mod would have a definitive answer. Otherwise check the FAQ section

@MrCarri-X these threads tend to do that. Usually it’s just the regulars goofing off so thats why :P

@DarthValtrex thank you for granting an additional flight of fancy, but as it's tomorrow and I'm old, I've forgotten yesterday's theory, so I'll have to get back to you on that one after a bit of a mull as today's theory had nothing whatsoever to do with this topic 😃

@Koochi-Q Thank you for your support, but I'm not sure what "whack a mole" means, is it something rude that one does on one's own? 😃

@hayhor memory like a seive here,  please see the above reply to @DarthValtrex 😃

@MrCarri-X brilliant topic choice for all the narcissists herein 😃

@EA_David Thank you for that 50 nugget. Makes things so much easier as my old fingers were getting tired with all this "next" business. 😃

@Koochi-Q I'd wager my mobile is older than yours!😛😃

@Koochi-Q how kind, thank you, but I cannot condone the instant destruction of a keyboard warrior.  I would much prefer to have them taken apart piece by piece! 😃

Because:

They lack,

The tack,

To stay on track,

When they get a whack,

From this here mac.

Can't take the flack,

Time to attack,

With a dose of frack,

Open a crack,

They end up in a sack!

Dedicated to my protector

@Koochi-Q 😃
