Using Jive Rewards
When you use a Jive community, you can see actions you take around the community reflected in points and badges that show up in your Inbox and on your profile.
Jive Rewards is the built-in way to improve your reputation or recognize your peer for their efforts.
You automatically gain points for using the community to create content and interact with other people and their content. For example, updating your status, answering someone's question, and commenting on a blog all result in your gaining points. When you collect a certain number of points, you reach a new level in your community. The achievement is displayed as a badge on your profile, on the leaderboards, and in the activity stream.
Rewards also include quests and missions that ask you to complete a sequence of specific activities. For example, an onboarding quest might require writing a blog post in the New People group, sharing it with another user, and liking someone else's post in the same group. When you complete a quest, you usually get extra points and a badge on your profile.
People with many points in the community, or in a specific place, are listed on leaderboards.
