Some users have mentioned they are getting too many unwanted emails from this group. Firstly, I apologize that we could not make this opt-in. A very limited number of community members have been allowed in the pilot, so this group is closed and cannot be accessed unless you have been granted access to the pilot.
But that doesn't mean you live here now. You can go to the main group page and select "Group options" to leave the group or click "Unwatch" to unsubscribe. If you want to be opted out of the pilot completely, that's okay too; just let us know in the comments and we will help as soon as we can. But the do-it-yourself solution below is the fastest.
Now on to the feedback and known issues:
Some typos were fixed; please continue to report them when you spot them!
Some users were unable to scroll up and down to see the full Kudos window because the announcement bar was in the way. This is working now.
The "Do it" button was supposed to send you to where you can complete each challenge: This was broken and has been temporarily removed while we work to fix
Not working: Some challenges do not seem to be triggering, even when users complete them, specifically Find Your Community and As You Like It,
Working: Some challenges had issues reported earlier in the day but seem to be working now, specifically: This Helped Me, Picture It, I Like It (and a late addition, Pilot Participant)
Working but needs update:
User search when giving kudos: Some users are showing up more than once and some are showing up only by last name. We are looking into these issues with user search!
Giving kudos experience needs improvement (big piece of feedback!) So far we have the following suggestions:
"Peer kudos" balance:
Your "peer kudos" balance (e.g. the ability to send recognition to other users) will refresh every Friday. Members get 100 peer kudos to distribute every week, Community Leaders get 1000 peer kudos to distribute.
We are continuing to collect feedback and ideas, so keep them coming! Thank you for participating. And if you found a bug today, remind me to give you some peer kudos. ;)
yes i had the same thought. good stuff!
Hi @Monique vdB ,
I have some additional questions about the challenges potentially not working (not sure how the mechanisms are triggered):
@Jacob Young can you look at these?
Apologies for the troubles you've had. Seems we had some errors on the config side. Awarded you for those three challenges!
Hi @Jacob Young, no worries :-) - my input is fundamentally meant as feedback about the pilot and to help fix flaws.
Yet - if you mention you awarded me for those 3 challenges, I still see 2 of them in the next challenges list on the left instead of in the trophy case.
"Peer kudos" balance:
Your "peer kudos" balance (e.g. the ability to send recognition to other users) will refresh every Friday. Members get 100 peer kudos to distribute every week
(when) do i need to spent them to other users? - when they answer my questions in forum
What can i do with all my kudos points?
Are they just for the rank or can I "buy" something with them?
like a title next to my name or something else:
The 100 peer kudos can only be shared with other members in the pilot, they will not boost your rank.At least within the pilot for this program, there are no ostensible rewards besides fun and competition for the program. Nonetheless, in the long term we are looking into potential rewards programs where kudos will serve as a currency.
