&lt;p&gt;Look how far we&amp;rsquo;ve come &amp;hellip;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We now have thousands of members visiting and participating in SDL Community, a testament to the fact that users are finding relevant content and connections to make membership worthwhile.&amp;nbsp; It has been truly great watching SDL community grow into a thriving place where experts and newbies alike can come together to &amp;ldquo;learn, meet and share.&amp;rdquo;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some exciting new features are on their way &amp;hellip;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We want to say a big thank you to you all and in turn have been working very hard to make sure we are continuing to make your community a welcoming and informative and fun place to be.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As of 26 September 2016 you will notice a few changes&amp;hellip;we have&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Created badges that showcase your contributions in community, which include:&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Delivered more functionality in the forums for you to see who is voting for your thread, who else has the same question in a given forum, and more&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added badges to SDL Employees and partners members, making it easier for you to identify SDL representatives&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Refreshed the top level navigation bar
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Member lifetime contribution levels (range from 1 to 15)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Most Active Member&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Top Contributor of the Month&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Top Contributor of the Year&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&amp;ldquo;Let Me Help You&amp;rdquo; Badges for providing correct answers&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Badges will be automatically assigned both to external and internal (SDL) Members, so start participating, enjoy the feeling of helping others and get recognized for it.&amp;nbsp; The badges are based upon a points system.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Points you have accrued as an SDL Community contributor since becoming a SDL Community member will be visible on your profile as of the date above.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Get involved now to win an Apple Watch!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To kick these changes off we will be giving away an Apple Watch to our top contributor.&amp;nbsp; Any points accrued from the 26 September 2016 - 31 December 2016 will bring you closer to being a community winner.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The person with the most points as of 1 January 2017 will win an Apple Watch. All SDL Community members are eligible to win.&amp;nbsp; Announcement of the winner &amp;nbsp;will be released in Community end of January 2017.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What are you waiting for?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So as a member of SDL Community, keep doing what you are doing. &amp;nbsp;But if you want a sneak peek on how to ramp up those points&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://uat.community.rws.com/sdl-groups/community_conversations/community-competition/w/guidelines/1171.how-to-collect-points" target="_blank"&gt;click here!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
