Feeling left out and neglected ;-)

Somehow I think you put my counter on the spam list ;-) I noticed that no points are counted on my profile since April,18. Was it something I said? Really, there are a few people that like my answers....

Answered! View the answer I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

that is so nice of you, but see it does not even count. I guess the CEO put me on the spam list, story of my life...LOL ;-)

i had an answer accepted and only received 22 points... but the next day another accepted answer got 30... I'm feeling a lack of love going on here.. or the maths dude is having a bad day?

We still like you!

I take it that you're referring to meta, not Answers, because you're still earning lots of reputation there.

You haven't earned reputation from upvotes on meta because "discussion topics" don't give reputation for upticks. We did that to encourage people to vote up/down based on their opinion. It seemed rude to have downvotes on discussions count against the author. For example, if I suggested 'Red Cross' to a recent poll, and you downvote because you dislike them for some reason, it shouldn't penalize me.

Discussion topics are a way to opt out of the reputation system for a bit so we can chat more informally. Answers in discussion topics also sorted chronologically rather than by vote count.

my 22 v 30 was on ifixit not meta...

Pollytintop I note you have five ace of answers. If you were close to an ace you only get credit to the points needed to reach it. That could explain the 22 instead of 30.

Oh, that is how it works. I see....thanks for letting me know ;-)I thought you were just ignoring me....
