Points question --

I'm not sure how points work here. I'm not in it for the points but am curious. My point total went down 4 between yesterday and today and there is no notice or explanation for why that change took place. Is there any way to find out?

There was a bit of a troll incident last night who downvoted a lot of posts, causing some temporary reputation loss. While it was handled (thanks mostly to @ArtOfCode), it'll take some recalculating to get all of the scores back to normal and the team simply hasn't had a chance to do that yet.

For the near future, the Codidact team is trying to figure out ways to prevent voting attacks from happening - there should be some updates coming on that within the next few days, I believe.

For the not-especially-near future, we're looking at removing the displayed points / reputation and replacing it with other metrics to show domain expertise and site expertise to work with the upcoming Trust Level system. This is, however, still a little while away from happening (and the specifics are still up in the air).

thanks -- would there be a place where I could see what was down voted or what caused the change?

@rosends - I don't think there's currently a place to see all changes. I don't see any extant downvotes on your posts at the moment, in any case (just waiting on the reputation recalc).

@Mithical I just jumped up 15 from that lower number (11 from where I was earlier yesterday) but can't track where or why.

@rosends Not sure how points are calculated, but I suspect the net +11 was actually +15-4, with those -4 potentially being more from the troll before Art stepped in.

@Mithical should I even be asking again today? I must have offended someone because I'm down 60 plus points.
