Experience Points (XP)

XP (Experience Points) represents your permanent achievement score on the Nudj platform. Unlike points which you spend, XP accumulates forever, tracking your journey, determining your level, and establishing your position in the community hierarchy.

Determines your level and unlocks features
Tracks category-specific achievements

Your XP is displayed on your profile and throughout the platform

Level System

How Levels Work

Your XP determines your level through a non-linear progression system:

XP Accumulation

Earn XP from various activities

Threshold Check

System checks if you’ve reached next level threshold

Level Up

Automatically advance when threshold is met

Unlock Features

New level may unlock features, badges, or privileges

Continue Growing

No level cap - keep progressing infinitely

Level Progression Formula

Non-Linear ScalingLevel thresholds increase exponentially using the formula:

Level N Threshold = 100 * (1.15 ^ N)

Examples:

Level 1: 100 XP
Level 10: 405 XP
Level 20: 1,637 XP
Level 50: 108,366 XP
Level 100: 1,174,313 XP

This ensures early levels are achievable while maintaining long-term progression goals.

XP Persistence

Permanent RecordKey characteristics of XP storage:

Immutable: XP never decreases
Auditable: Full history tracked
Real-time: Instant updates
Distributed: Per-community storage
Aggregated: Global totals calculated

Common Questions

Can XP ever decrease?

No, XP is permanent and never decreases. Once earned, it’s yours forever. This is the fundamental difference from points.

Do I have separate XP for each community?

Yes, XP is tracked per-community, allowing you to build different levels and reputations in different communities while maintaining a global total.

How do levels affect my experience?

Higher levels unlock features, provide multipliers, grant access to exclusive content, and establish your status in the community.

Is there a maximum level?

No, there’s no level cap. The exponential scaling ensures long-term progression goals while keeping early levels achievable.

How is XP different from points in leaderboards?

Leaderboards typically rank by XP (permanent achievement), not points (spendable currency). This rewards long-term dedication over current wealth.
