This document will explain the meaning of the rankings as they stand within the Qlik Community today.  We will likely update the rankings in the future and when we do, we will update this document to reflect any changes. 

The main purpose of the rankings in this online community is to recognize those who contribute and identify those users to other community members. The rankings in this community are a ladder structure, the lowest ranks listed at the bottom.  The more you participate the higher up you will advance up the ladder.   These ranks are updated automatically as you earn them. Below is an image of the Rank Ladder.

We also have the ability to manually assign a rank to a member.  These rankings reflect a group or team that a member is a part of.   Below is a list of the most common ranks you will see in the community:
