Dear all,
I just could not find any information about the kudos bonus on standard activities. (Either I am blind and/or tired)
Many thanks
Thomas
Hi @Thomas Deiler and @Linda Milne_Togetha Group_ 👋
I believe I can shed some light on this. Standard activities that aren't in reference to the Kudos challenges in the drop down menu aren't currently associated to the Kudos points you collected from activities.
You will find on occasion that there is some cross over for example if you answered a question that had the tag 'jira-cloud' and you were also doing the 'Jira Cloud Learning' Challenge this would add towards completing the challenge and achieving those lovely Kudos points 😃
Because Kudos is currently in Beta there are two types of recognition for your help on the Community - there are the badges which you'll find under your profile which is the current form of recognition everyone can achieve and can help you work up to being a Community Leader. And then you have Kudos (in Beta) which is solely associated to the challenges they provide. So for standard activities see below:
I hope this helps but please ask away if you have any more questions 😄
Hope you're both having a great weekend!
All the best,
Laura
@Laura Holton _ACE Rotterdam_ this is a great overview!
I wanted to share one insight that might be of interest, which is that if you get an answer accepted or a piece of content liked or upvoted, it only triggers in the kudos program if the person who performed the action is also enrolled in the beta.
Accepted answers and such are valuable activities that really help showcase expertise; we would love to be able to include them in the beta, but cannot for that reason. If and when we roll out a full program, we won't have that restriction, so those activities will definitely be part of the program.

Thanks @Laura Holton _ACE Rotterdam_ and @Monique vdB ,
answering questions - gains Kudos if it's linked to a challenge for example Super Solve Thursday or the Jira Cloud Learning. It also works towards badges.
This seems not to be what I observed. I get 5 Kudos regardless whom's question I answer. I this a hidden feature?
And by the way, I think (like Monique pointed out) the main objective of the community is to help those that ask questions. When the main contributors of the community start hunting challenges, probably the objective could be off focus. Therefore I believe, rewarding objective activities (especially accepted answers) is very important. I would suggest following:
If this is not possible to implement, please add at least a permanent/recurring challenge for accepted answers.
So long
Thomas

@Thomas Deiler thank you so much for this list! I just sent you a kudos to say thanks.

There is a repeatable badge called "Answer Bonus" that gives you a 5-point bonus for answering questions once you have hit Level 3. We will try to make this more clear!
We also have Super Solve Thursday every week where you get 100 points per answer, and this week, we're stretching that to the entire week for Team 2021.
Rewarding objective activities (especially accepted answers) is very important.
Fully agree! In fact we have beautiful badges designed to reward accepted answers by product. Here is a sneak peek of one:
But see above: we can't implement this now because in order to trigger in the beta, your answer has to be accepted by someone already enrolled in the beta. If and when we roll out a full program, we will be able to do this for all our products!
In the meantime, our non-kudos badges available to everyone do reward accepted answers. The downside of those is that they can't be segmented by product.
I'm going to comment on your bullet points inline:
Thanks again @Thomas Deiler for the great feedback!

Im confounded by this as well.
And tags. What are the rules around using tags - in general, but for the beta specifically.

@Linda Milne_Togetha Group_ here is an article about tags that is still relevant!
It's true that tags are used for the beta, for example answering cloud questions is determined by whether the question is tagged cloud. You can filter questions on the homepage feed by product and tag using these instructions. Let me know if I can clarify anything else for you!
