Seeking Your Suggestions: Naming Our Book Club Membership Levels

Here are my suggestions for the 10 membership levels:

1st- Page Turner
2nd  - Book Worm
3rd  - Storyteller
4th  - Literary Aficionado
5th - Bibliophile
6th - Prose Master
7th  - Book Maven
8th  - Chapter Champion
9th  - Literary Scholar
10th - Book Club Legend

That's a great idea. What about something related to the book genres for the higher ranks? It can help members connect over shared interests and foster deeper conversations. it can also encourage them to explore new genres as well.
And I suggest naming the basic membership level as "Member" or something like that. So my list goes like this,

    Member - Anyone can join the club and start enjoying reading.

    Book Turner - Members who read monthly recommendations and actively                                   engage in conversations. We can give them a discount ...or                                   nothing...(what yall think about that?)

    Book Worm - Members who get involved in more book-related conversations                              and start their book-related conversations. We can start giving                              a discount.

    Book Lover - For those who continue to engage in the conversations and                                    introduce lesser-known books to others. we can give them early                            access to new releases and a discount. (Maybe monthly                                        recommendations too ?)

    Storyteller - An exclusive badge for the members who break down stories,                               discuss symbolism, and explain hidden meanings. A                                             discount+monthly book recommendation + Exclusive early                                   access to new releases.

* Other 5 genre-related ones. we can merge genres and come up with some names.

** And I also think we need to give a recognition to the beta testers when this is released. You can give a badge to encourage them as well.

                                                                                     ~TheMorningstar.

@gadfly YEP. What is great to one can be not so great to another. But I referred to what is generally accepted. Many of us like their work. Or whether or not we like them, we have had to study them or read them. This is a forum for suggestions. We can all chip in and decide what is best.

Hmm I wonder if any are familiar with the audible app and the way they categorise things.

They have three categories a listener can achieve things under:

1. Listening time
2. Listening level 
3. Badge collection 

I feel we could have this approach rather than just having 10 different categories. 

So to apply it to our context:

Considering 1 and 2 above:

• We could have time spent on book club per month or a week and maybe 3 categories depending on the time spent on the forum
• If measuring time spent is not feasible then maybe the number of interactions with posts and depending on a particular number, just a few categories 

Considering 3 above:

1. Have categories like what @gadfly is suggesting. Which has to do with specific types of engagement or type of book categories on which the engagement is based on

I feel @themorningstar's suggestion is also very appealing. 

Thank you all for your great suggestions. we will update you on the future development 

How about this?

1. Page Turner
2. Book Lover
3. Researcher
4. Explorer
5. Book Athlete
6. Librarian
7. Collector
8. Scholar
9. Philosopher
10. Wizard (like Gandalf in Lord of The Rings)
