The amount of data that was being returned was making this too prohibitive, as we would be firing from SL to web-server, and then from web-server to web-service (returning a lot of data). That's why I was using RIA.

Not just showing the graph, but also reporting the total rep as based on the last N years.

I've thought about this a lot. It's tempting. One of the issues, though, is that in places such as QA where we show a member's rep along with their post, this rep may, over time, reduce. Having an answer appear to come from a lower rep member than was the case at the time the answer was posted may do the answer an injustice.

Allright.
I actually find John's idea interesting: in fact, my request is nothing else than another view on the database, so it could be well achieved with a graph or with the information being displayed somewhere in a profile, for instance "recent reputation" as opposed to "all time reputation". let's wait till the graphs are available...

I'm writing an article/application right now that I think does what you want. I'm working on the graph part right now while the associated web service scrapes data once per day (I have the luxury of not having to actually tally each point value, so that's why it works for me). The app will only show data that's no more than a year old. Anything beyond that is cast off an no longer applicable to the application (but it is kept in the database so someone can write additional code to get to it). Right now, I have three days worth of data for myself. That's anough to do all the chart work.
It's called "Reputationator". 
I can post the database table schema I'm using if you want to start manually collecting your own data.

Good, I look forward to it.

Thanks, but my own reputation is of no interest, I'll wait until this is available for vieweing everybody's.

It will only scrape for one user 9at first). Eventually, it will show you where you are in comparison to the 2 people ahead of you in points, and the two people behind you. It's not intended to really watch more than one person, but I suppose I could make it do it. The real problem is that it takes a few seconds to scrape the profile page for the specified user. I feel like even if it supported multple users, I would have to limit the number to something reasonable like 10 or so. I was going to remove it from the table, but it's looking like it was a good idea afterall to save the user's ID with each point value.

I fired up the diff engine to see what the edits made to my alternative[^] were.
Revs 2/3 are showing irrelevant(?) <p> tags. If you diff v1 against v3, the closing tag and my paragraph are missing the last 2 characters. 1 vs 2 or 2 vs 3 are hiding the trailing bracket of the /p tag as well.
The period at the end of the sentence only shows in 1 vs 2, or 1 vs 3 in the new revision. In 1 vs 3 it's marked as added, but not is 1 vs 2. 2 vs 3 doesn't show it at all.
I think your diff code has a few fencepost errors in the string handling code. 
3x12=36
2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

Both here and in The Lounge (haven't tried elsewhere) if I hover over any part of a post subject line I get a ToolTip of "None".
Of course there is always the possibility that this is intentional, in which case please ignore this message.

I also get 'NONE' when I hover over your name, but no explanation of what you have none off. A bit dangerous to leave open to interpretation if you ask me.

Strange, i hover over your name and get 'Trouble Maker'.......

When I hover over the Toga wearing Bob next to your name, I see they have spelt 'Mental' wrongly.

The WPF Dental Chair article in the C# section seemed to get a spike of votes today, and this is really surprising. Can we keep an eye on this one?

Hello,
this is not a bug in the strict sense: for a better viewing the width of field "category" in the filter modus should be equal as the witdth of the filed category in the edit modus (here: ok, adjusted to respective word length).
Thx for attention,

I find it a strange coincidence that this question[^] and this one[^], posted within less than an hour of each other are (apparently) from different people.
