I lost 1.5 levels after the move to the new site (don't know if my point total dropped though). For those unaware your level can be found when you go your profile and click on "trophies".

I was under the impression GS was getting rid of the level system altogether anyways? Is that no longer the case? Anyone else lose levels?

I lost a level and a few hundred posts.

I'm taking a wild guess here but I'd say most likely that they erased all the 'deleted' threads you may have posted in. I noticed on the old site if you made a post and the thread was deleted it didn't take away from your post count...there was probably a hidden board with all the deleted threads that finally got zeroed.

But that's just a guess.

That makes sense. The "deleted" threads could also just have been marked invisible, and they were still around, and weren't transferred over when the site moved too.

Gamespot stopped tracking stats for bout 2 days before the the new site when live, that is why some users level may have dropped a small bit.

i read that the levels were outmoded. i dont remember what level i was at, or the amount of points i had. i think it was 'super bagman,' which doesnt ring well for me. it shows as blaster master now, which is perhaps 2nd worse among the names given to the old levels, but is still not as bad as bagman. the trophies room is a momento from the old ways. in the statement given, telling of the dissolving of the level system, it was declared that they would explore a future purpose for trophies. those extra titles under the name were cumbersome and weird any way. i dont care to be understood as a master of blasting or a super among bagmen.

bag.

We will eventually be getting a new level system so no need to worry about the old one.

Lost 93% of a level (62 0%->61 7%), over a months worth, and several thousand posts (not even really sure how many, but I had somewhere between 67k and 70k posts beforehand and normally only post a couple times a week at this point, haven't paid attention to it for quite some time) - probably over a years worth in recent times, not so much a few years back. I preferred the level name from 62 and I'm surprised % dropped quite so much as I only gain ~2% a day most days but I'm not really all that bothered.

That said, there's no level system now anyway, the trophies page is the only thing that even shows it, and that's just remnants from the old site that might be used to give a boost to people should they start up a new level system.

You won't because the level system is being remade. Your old level will contribute points to the new level system but it will be completely different.
