Hi Bonfire community! 👋 2025 is here, and there’s no better time than the new year to launch an updated ranking and badging system. This year, we’re excited to recognize your contributions in Bonfire more effectively. Here’s what’s changing: Ranking Updates Ranking in our community is based on your level of engagement—the more you participate, the higher your rank. As you advance, you'll unlock additional rewards. We’re simplifying the structure to make advancement more achievable. Plus, we’ve updated the rank names to reflect your accomplishments as you progress. Who doesn’t want to be an Expert? 😉 Here’s the updated rank structure: New Member Member Contributor Connector Collaborator Supporter Influencer Mentor Expert Visionary Each of these ranks corresponds to activity and engagement levels within the community.
