1. Background of QQ downgrade phenomenon

Why was QQ downgraded?

As a mainstream social networking software in China, QQ’s account level system has always been an important indicator of user activity. However, starting from early October 2023, a large number of users reported that their levels had "inexplicably" dropped, and some users' levels even dropped from "Sun" to "Moon". This phenomenon quickly appeared on the hot search lists on Weibo, Tieba and other platforms.

5. The importance of QQ level and user psychology

6. Summary and suggestions

The QQ downgrade incident reflects users’ demand for transparency in social platform rules. It is recommended that QQ officials fix the problem as soon as possible and publicly explain the level calculation rules to avoid similar disputes. For users, there is no need to be overly anxious and they can provide rational feedback through official channels.

In the future, the hierarchy of social platforms may require more innovation to adapt to the needs of new era users. As QQ is an old social software, how to optimize user experience while retaining classic functions will be the key to its development.
