How do the levels work? What do they mean?

Great thought! Hope they do that soon!

The direct message logic needs refinement. I often initiate conversations with new users and was surprised to discover they cannot respond if they are below Level 7. To improve user interaction, the system should allow Level 6 or lower users to reply if a Level 7 or higher user starts the conversation. This change would enhance communication without compromising safety.

I fully agree! That would be a huge improvement!

It would be nice to have some more information from Bambu on this.
Also is there a leader board? I’m LV30 (WTF) but i have been here for over a year and busy designing and downloading.

Happy 2025

I was hoping to send a message to a guy who made a mount with screws. I wanted to download a model and edit it to work with nails but he only uploaded a .3mf. I was going to message him if he would send me an stl or step file I could use but i need to be level 7 to send him a message. I am level 6

First, the model license needs to allow a remix.

If it doesn’t, you can’t do it and you will need to design it from scratch.

If it does allow remixes, open it in Bambu Studio and then right-click and export as an STL.

I shared the public word earlier (above).

Levels aren’t a ranking system, a leaderboard would serve no purpose.

Level 30 is the highest achievable as it stands. It only means you have completed certain processes which when combined give a score, level is the inappropriate phrase as two people achieving different things can have the same level.

Speaking of levels, I noticed this oddball from a thread yesterday. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Thank you for the information.
I was wondering why i had not seen anyone with a higher level :grinning:
It makes sense now :+1:
Looking forward to the future when the levels have a meaning :crossed_fingers:t2:

Mmmmmmmm :thinking:
Looks like the age we live in and bot’s will take over the planet :wink: lol

Nothing odd about it. The inverse is possible - a person wiht tons of downloads & prints but low level.

The level is counted based on interactions and downloading & printing IS interaction.

How many likes etc. I have to make that I go a level higher? Someone wrotes me a private message because I wont to help him to improve his tool, but I can’t answer because I only have level 5.

I also posted pictures from my prints and wrote questions and answers for some models I have printed, but my points don’t go higher.

Welcome to the forum! As far as I know this post from Tanklet is the only info we have on that…

I don’t care AT ALL about levels. What I really dislike about them, however, is that I am not allowed to PM (even in response to someone) because my level is below 7! LEVEL 7 JUST TO PM?

Now days you cannot message a creator unless you are level seven.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure he knows that

I wish that was true. I’m only level 5 on MakerWorld and I can’t pm someone back after they sent me a message.

We will allow replying for users lower than level 5 in recent update. Thanks for the feedback.

Is Level 30 the highest? Since achieving this level I have not progressed past it for a long time.

From what I know, yes, it’s the highest.

Well, I’m level 6 and I can’t respond to a maker that has reached out to me.
This really SUCKS!
