Apple Support Community levels and points: what they meant and how to keep yours

On the Apple Support Community, every member had a level from 1 to 10 and a number of points. Points came from other members marking replies as helpful or as the solution, and levels went up as points grew. A high level meant someone had helped a lot of people over a long time.

Levels are preserved in the archive

Every archived post shows its author's level and points as they were on the original community, with the same level icons. Member profile pages list each person's archived posts.

Finding a member

Use the People search to find a member by name and open their profile.

Keeping your level when sign-in opens

When sign-in with Apple opens, a verification bot will let you prove that an archived profile is yours with a short, minimal verification. After that your account is linked to the archived profile, and your level, points and posts are kept.
