Rank System

The rank system is based on points, which are based on your total posts, followers upvotes on your posts, and comments on the main blog. As you gain points, you get colder, and your rank increases.

Followers

Followers in the Extra Chill Community are similar to the classic social media concept, except they are made to be useful. When you follow a user, their posts are added to your Following Feed, so you can keep up with their posts. This is especially useful if there is an artist you like who participates in the Community, because you get a direct feed of their content.

Upvotes

Upvoting in the Extra Chill Community is a concept borrowed from Reddit, a platform that our founder has frequented for over a decade. This system helps the most popular content stand out from the crowd.

Seamless Connection

When you log in to your Community account, it grants you access to the social features on Extra Chill. This means you can then upvote your favorite posts on the main blog, and help influence Extra Chill’s editorial content.
