Levels!

Notice the little number next to everyone's name?  Well we now have levels on the site.

What do levels do?
Levels allow you to show off your experience to others on the site. In the future we may also unlock features on the site as you reach certain levels.

How do levels work?
Every time you play a song you will earn some experience points (xp). After you earn enough experience points your level will increase. You will notice that with each level it becomes more challenging and difficult to advance to the next.

How do experience points work?
You earn experience points based on how many points you earn on a song. You will notice that you will get more experience from higher difficulties since it is possible to earn more points on high difficulties.

Can I lose experience points?
Nope! Once you earn xp, it's yours forever to keep and cherish. Even if you lose to Roxanne you will still earn experience for simply beating the song.

How else can I earn experience?
If you get a friend to sign up for JamLegend using your referral link (found on your friends page) you will get 500 bonus xp when they reach level 2. In addition, every time your friend level up afterwards, you get some extra bonus xp. You can track how much xp they have earned for you by looking at the "Managed Talent" section of your profile.

Feel free to post other questions to the comments and we will answer them.

what will happen to the global rank then ? is there any use for it ?
Thanks, that was a good idea. Keep up the good work !
Headi: It seems rank is still there, and I think you can still lose rank :P
It's getting better ;) Still a bit weird to have a 'level' and a ranking. Hope you make it a bit more clear on the site son.
I think the idea is really cool but now there's all kinds of indicators that may confuse people: levels, XP, global rank, ladder points. All of these get confusing as you realize they're affected by: songs played, songs beat, difficulty played, achievements, groupies, etc.

This becomes a bit ... much? Is there a way to make this all simpler?

regarding "how else section"
