Estoy doing muy bien con mi leccións en español, y am en lección 3.5 next time I'm on. I'm a green star master when it comes to the badges, but it seems that I jumped from "Specialist" to "Green Star Master" bypassing "Guru" and "Certified" to get there! What's this about? I may have just not noticed when I got "Guru" and then "Specialist", but would like to know if I just bypassed them or if I just didn't notice when I reached.
Chao,Brittany

Brittany, most likely you just didn't notice you had already accumulated the points :) I think you can't bypass the badges...

I also have wondered why you get 100 points for responding to a post the first time, but no points for subsequent posts. I don't think 100 per post is the right amount, but maybe 10 for each follow up post or something like that. Quite often, a meaningful and helpful exchange between several members takes place that are worth some points.
But at the end of the day, those people that came from nowhere and earned several hundred thousand points overnight are still on the leaderboard, which cheapens the entire point system for me.

To add to the discussion about points when listening to a lesson I believe you should be able to note if you have listened to the audio lessons away from the website. Most days I listen to the lessons on my ipod during my commute but of course do not get points or anything towards my daily streak for this despite the fact I am studying RS most days just not online.
Of course if there was a mouse click option to record you have completed a downloaded lesson people could 'cheat' but as we all know they would only be cheating themselves!!!!
