    Is that the reason my point went to 10k from 14k?:confused:

      Well, the announcement is placed on your profile page -> reputation tab. It says the recalculation was done on On Jul 3, 2011

      You can flame me whichever way you want and I wouldn't care a bit. But if you group me with some idiots, I'll turn into your worst nightmare.

          ya i felt the same, but if it is planned... I think the better way should be to make it happen from the date of rule change. Not for the existing downloads as it would come as a shock to those who has built there reputation based on articles.

          Well, to be honest, I could care less. I see now I have 467k ( was 410k before ), so things are changing. The thing is, it's all relative. If I have more because of a change, so do you. So, even if you live for such things, who cares what the absolute number is ?

            So unfair! They should leave old points as they where and from this point on, start with a new points system. :( Like a thunder from a sky! :(

              But so long as the rules are the same for everyone, what does it matter ?

                Sincerely it doesn't, but still this morning, I had a big WTF on my face?!?!? They could let us now that this will be done before they actually did it.

                              Yes, I had noticed that. I was getting 1000k some days just from downloads, so I guess that meant it was decided it was too heavily weighted in that direction.

                                          After all they are not like frequent flyer miles! They don't make you no better looking. You can't eat them. You friends don't have point envy. (Well come to think of it maybe some do) I'm with you they are pretty to look at but in the end ain't good for nothing. :)
