As Tom also suggested I actually had checked my reputation history where I couldn't find any hints of why the points were lost. Do I read you right that the described action you took does not leave a trace in the reputation history?
BTW do points lost due to deleted questions show up in the reputation history?
Cheers!

Correct.

No. Gone is gone.
These cases are, thankfully, rare, but I do realise they can be disheartening. However, the effect they have on other authors and those helping in the forums by their downvotes is worse. Once a member goes on a voting rampage it's hard to sort out valid from invalid votes (both up and down) so I have no option but to wipe the damage from the system.

Regardless of the reason or what you had to do to fix this problem, I strongly urge you to implement some kind of point notification tool that will make appropriate entries in member's logs. I think Manfred is justified by his concern over the complete lack of any entry. As you remember, I recently had 70,000 points added, without a single blip in my log. Even a generic Points adjusted due to post removal would at least give people a clue that something had happened.

That would have been round about the same time that codeproject was unavailable briefly, maybe an update in progress at the time.

Both should be good now.

There seems to be a difference in points between the "about" page and the reputation graph. For me its as high as a 90 point difference.
Not sure if one or the other is lagging since the last change to the computation of points.

It is a well known Cacheing issue.

The rss blogs don't seem to pick up the CodeProject tag when it's in CDATA.
It's defined like this:
<category>
Is it because it's in CDATA? Or is there another problem? I used to have a working blog connected to CodeProject but I've since deleted it and attached a new one. Could that be the problem?

This seems like a real example of this bug in action (rather than my last report, which was just an old article): Stored Procedure Caller Generator. First posted 12 Jul 2011. A vote of 1 and a vote of 2 with no corresponding messages in the forum below the article.
Driven to the ARMs by x86.

I wonder if that is a side-effect of Chris 'Stats' Maunder's new outlier eliminator?
|
|
|
|
|
Could be. It's a feature, not a bug.

Thanks for that. There are a couple of avenues I need to wander down to check this. I just haven't had the time. Good data, though. Thanks.

When I click on a post to read it, there's a considerable amount of jiggling up and down before the text display stabilizes. Been happening the last few days, but not every time I open a post. What's changed?

One thing that's changed is the code to ensure a post is visible when you click on it has been updated to ensure it's actually working. The expected behaviour is that if you click on a message at the bottom of your screen the forum slides up a little. Click on a message at the top and it should slide down a little. There should be no jigglies.
Which forum and how many messages in the forum are showing within your browser window?

Chris, I think you need to kick your server once again to fetch the blog posts in CP.

Of course I now cannot make it happen I see some scrolling, but not the up-and-down that I was seeing before.
You're messing with me, aren't you?

OK, happened again in the Lounge. There were 21 posts showing and I clicked on a post about in the middle of the page. First it scrolled up, then dropped back down.
