Member ranks

Your points reward useful cooking

Ranks make the contributions that help other cooks visible. The score only follows published recipes and active votes, so it stays easy to understand.

Earn points

Useful actions, counted clearly

+100 points

Publish an original recipe

Submit a complete original recipe. Once accepted and published, it earns 100 points; an approved variation of a verified recipe earns 50.

+2 points

Keep a vote active

Vote on any published recipe, including your own. A positive or negative vote counts once while it remains active.

Fair by design

Every contribution is clear

Favourites, profile edits and repeated vote changes do not add points today. This keeps the score tied to recipes published and votes that remain useful.

All levels

Six ranks, from first step to master cook

Your badge changes automatically when your score reaches the next threshold.

  1. Apprentice

    From 0 points

    The starting point for discovering the community.

  2. Kitchen hand

    From 50 points

    Your first helpful actions start to count.

  3. Cook

    From 150 points

    You cook and participate regularly.

  4. Chef

    From 400 points

    Your contributions help keep the shared table alive.

  5. Senior chef

    From 800 points

    You have built a real habit of sharing.

  6. Master cook

    From 1,500 points

    A marker for the community's most involved members.

How the score stays accurate

  • One active vote on a published recipe earns points, including a vote on your own recipe; changing that vote does not stack points.
  • Removing a vote removes its two points.
  • The score is recalculated from recipes that are still published and votes that are still active.
