    I have two articles: Total Downloads = 1821 + 155 Total Book Marks = 8+8 Total Votes(all 5*) = 5 + 2 And my Author reputation is 1797... Something seriously wrong. May be time to redefine all classical math operations; like 1+1 = -12 ; 1-1 = -24; 1/1 = 32; 1x1 = undefined

      Read the post at the top of this page. And your math is wrong: 1+1=3, as any book about making children will prove. :rolleyes:

        It was a proposal(the math ops), thanks for the feedback and correcting them. Way to go! Thanks, Kuthuparakkal

          The maths is designed to recognise the reputation of the "bigger hitters" of Code Project. This means that a +5 from someone like myself will count more for your article than an account that was created 10 minutes ago. One of the reasons for this is so that people get rewarded more, the more they contribute - and your article/tip/whatever vote gets a heavier weight vote which people should trust more.

              Downvotes lower the total as they add negative values.

                  No you don't. I went and looked at your articles - you have votes lower than 5 in both of them.

                        Now go into your articles and hover over the stars rating box - take a look at what you see in there. That's what I did, and I saw that there were downvotes on your articles (take a look at the explanation in there about the removal of statistical outliers).

                            This is bizarre, and I think there's been a problem here on CP. I raised a bug report because Sacha's latest article was showing a 2 vote without a comment; now your article was also showing me a 2 vote. Today, however, the 2 votes are gone. What does your author reputation show now?
