Hi @TraciC,
As a followup to your reply to my question in Announcing new levels & ways to help your community,
"Regarding your level being different in two places, can you share more information on a thread in "Feedback & Feature Requests" with screenshots, where you're seeing the difference, device(s) and version of your device(s) and Google Maps app, if applicable? Please tag me in this post so we can look into this. Other times, feel free to tag any Google Moderator. "
I'm currently Level 8 in Local Guide Connect (screenshot), and Level 6 in Google Maps & Earth Help Forum. (screenshot)
Only as FYI, before the change in points last week I was a higher level in the Maps Help Forum than I was in Local Guides -- I think Maps was 6 and LG was 5.
Getting the levels the same across these Google channels is appreciated! 😉
[EDIT] I removed the portion of this message regarding "points math" -- it appears that the desktop version may not be ready yet for prime-time, so I will use the mobile (iOS) version until it is.
Thanks very much TraciC for your assist with this! 😉

SolutionHi @MapWrangler,
The #LocalGuides Level and Maps Help Forum Level belongs to two different programs.
The first is a measure of our efforts spent in LGs, while the second is a measure of the efforts to take part in discussions in the Help Forum
Thus I do not consider they should be synced.

Hi @YK1001,
Thank you for the explanation/clarification. I came into LG and Maps Help from Map Maker at about the same time, so I incorrectly had them linked somehow 😉

I do not think it is a consistent answer. Both leves refer to Local Guides as it can be seen in the figures:
If they refer to different things, you should give different names, color, symbols, etc. or explain this more explicit somewhere.

Oh, really. Well I Certainly disagree. If the points and credits are earned its only fair to give them. Can't justify iregularitys regarding sequencing platforms of what should be conjoined. Naturally when said participant omits nonfesability between interface relations its shurly precipicated at face value whole r:e not apart
,!!! I'm shocked and rather pumbled . Thanks

Thank you. Mine both say local guides though. Some sync process has not equilized. On my problem . But your example is fantastic! This topic is most def a moderate consumer equasion.

Hi @Angelini75,
The original topic author is talking about levels in LovalGuides vs levels in Maps HELP Forum. They are independent.
The screen shots you posted, the level all depends on our level under the LovalGuides program, which when data sync needs time, you might find some differences from different platform dueCto time lap. Overtime, they will be the same.
Please do compare the topic of the discussion and your issue carefully before posting. Otherwise we might post comments that are completely irrelevant.
