Levels & XP
RandomTranslator has a leveling system that tracks your contributions to the site. Every action you take earns XP, which determines your level. Levels are displayed next to your username in reviews, comments, and community rankings.
How XP Works
You earn XP from various activities on the site. The more you contribute, the faster you level up.
| Activity | XP per action |
|---|---|
| Reading chapters (per 5 chapters read) | 1 XP |
| Completing a novel (reaching last chapter) | 50 XP |
| Bookmarking a novel | 5 XP |
| Rating a novel | 5 XP |
| Writing a review | 25 XP |
| Entity/glossary edit (approved) | 15 XP |
| Novel report (approved) | 20 XP |
| Setting a personal translation | 3 XP |
| Chapter feedback (thumbs up/down) | 5 XP |
| Uploading a novel | 50 XP |
| Posting a comment | 3 XP |
XP is calculated retroactively from all your past activity, so you already have a level based on everything you've done so far.
Level Curve
The leveling curve has 5 tiers. Early levels come fast, but higher tiers require significantly more XP — making high levels a genuine achievement.
