Apparently I just heard news that I hit 3 rep. Soonish enough, I'll make way to the negatives! That's cool, isn't it? Now the real question is, how long shall I expect myself dropping into negative four digits?

Well, at least I should try to end myself at 0, the 'breakeven' point. Oh, one thing I forgot to bother myself with.

Okay, I can still post URLs. Holy hell.

Sad that you've been attacked too.
Anyway don't let that bring you down, everyone knows that the system is broken by now.
Btw, you can still post links with a trick.

I'll still be around, it's just that it'll be hard gaining the rep required to keep my post-link-ability-without-encasing-them-in-quote-boxes. Maybe I'll live one day to see myself back at 200+ rep.

In theory we have a new Community Manager now, but we still have to see if she can actually change anything. :\
Ah, a fellow victim. Before I got Summoner from Don't be Jimy giveaway few weeks ago I am at 160+. Now I'm in 70s. I think it won't be long till I get to minus rep if this trend continue.

Not that I care about virtual point. But limitation of posting link sure hurts a bit

Post it in quotes if you can't do it otherwise.
So, uhh, what exactly is causing the rapid rep reduction?

posting in political topics, giveaway topics, and the scammer topic tends to get you "targetted" by certain clone armies.

Some people using bot to downvote post. If posts are low rated, poster rep point will be subtracted. There is limit how many points one may gain or lose in one day so you can't get people with 100 point to go down in 1 day for ex. But of you post and got downvoted everyday, you probably can loose 100 rep point in 2 weeks. That's one of reasons it's considered a broken system because rep point can be easily manipulated

Usually scammers, offended political extremists (from either side of the spectrum) or just any asshat who may have a grudge against a certain user and feeling like creating an alt army to exact "retribution" via derep spam...

Oh, thanks for clarifying that. It's a real shame, really hope they find a solution for this problem.

They won't it has been around forever.

Death threats and more is the norm on here.
Thank god they got rid of rep like the promised me they would.......TWO YEARS AGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a lost cause, but if the new Community Manager is for real then I will not stop until she has removed a few of these other fuckers. Just in case there is anyone using my old avatar and dedicating his time to harassing my friends and myself, not saying there is but if there is, your ass days are numbered. :D

But how could they, given how few time they have, with all these polish holidays and mandatory 6 hour thumb-twiddling session at the beginning of each work-day. /sarcasm
