Yep... waiting! ... and will wait till the you change the issue status to 'Affirmative'... 
It just looks like i hit one of the big/important bug! 
|
|
|
|
|
I see it again... try this: I just posted this message[^]... upvote me  (only if you like!) and you will see there is a rise in my organizer points too!
|
|
|
|
|
Yes confirmed, I voted your message up and your organizer points went from 695 to 696.
|
|
|
|

Thanks Moak for confirming it!

Further testing show's that the debator points are doubled.
Tested with 3 or 4 of your messages.
I upvoted you a 5 and checking your points you gained 11 points
Debator gains 10 (and should be 5)
Organisor gains 1
Unless voting weight is taking into account and I'm important enough (doubt it but hey you never know) to be able to award twice as many points
PS: Your welcome for the 35+ points

Yep. Thats fine. points are level weighted. You are 'important enough'! Your every upvote in general forum messages would give 10 points. Looks like currently you belong to x2 category!
P.S.: I will see where i can return your favor!

Take a look at this account:
http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=4583679[^]
It says -38 debator
However he has posted 2 messages in general forums (lounge) and some more in article forums (probably not counting as general forums)
The FAQ[^] states:
Post message = 1 point
Downvote on a message = -2
He has 1 downvote on 1 of his messages
So by my math he should have 0 points, how does he have -38? (my math could be wrong here )

It's not about just these two. There is one more line written in FAQ, which actually is playing around with numbers!
"The more a member's reputation increases within a given category, the more their votes count towards other members when voting on items within that reputation category.
For example, a member with a high Authority ranking (someone who answers a lot of questions) but a low Author ranking (they don't post many articles) will have their vote counted strongly when voting on answers, but not so strongly when voting on articles"
Though the eaxct weightage is not said in the FAQ... so cannot explain you the calculation part.

hmm still would be a very heavy vote to make him go down 40 points with 1 vote but I guess it's possible for some of the high level debators
|
|
|
|
|
Yep! very heavy one
BTW there is surely something... I observed something off late and am waiting to confirm it once more before posting.

Well the suspense is out now! 
Above two threads...
|
|
|
|

Also if you remove a message, you have still lost the points (and you lose 1 extra for removing the message)

Those two messages posted in the lounge have been fairly well savaged by some high ranking members. The combination of multiple, heavy downvoting means he's well and truly underwater.

Actually at the time of my posting this he only had 1 downvote on 1 message.
So that means 1 person was able to bring his points down with 40.
(I'm not saying he doesn't deserve it but it does seem a bit much for 1 vote)

Welcome to the 'Rep World'

Did you refresh the page? The messages are cached for a few minutes, while his profile is updated live. While I was investigating I was seeing his rep drop by the second.
I had to avert my eyes.

Yeah I did
was my first thought aswell (the caching) but it stayed with 1 vote and -38 for more than 5 min so...

I posted a new article this morning, and when I clicked the Submit button, it presented me with a notice that the page had been reach in error and that I had to upload code/images first, which is made ever more bizarre by the fact that I had purposely *not* specified any uploads. In the process, it lost all of the text I had entered in the article body.
It also seemed to ignore some of the linebreaks in the pre blocks. Of course, I have no proof, and I resolved the issues before coming here to report it. If there's a chance you can perform some sort of forensics, the article link is here:
How I Optimized my Silverlight Asynchronous Web Service Consumption[^]
And this all happened within the last 30 minutes or so.

I've learned the hard way never to use a remote tool for creating anything of substance, which in my definition is whatever takes more than 30 seconds to (re)create.
I use my own editor on my PC, then copy-paste all of it using whatever means are provided. It gives me the comfort, stability and reliability I want, without other people's decisions or system malfunctions interfering. Indeed, I don't want no clouds sir.

I use the IDE to create my articles (the file is usually part of the project itself). I always do that because of the possiblity of problems.

That's weird.
The wizard make sure that each step proceeds from the previous step. I do not use session to cehck for this because of timeout issues, so as long as you are going from one page to the next you can take your time and it should all be good. My only guess at this stage is there was a server or network error at the time you tried to post.
There's also a known issue with linebreaks and closing tags. We're trying to be a little cleverer in our handling of line breaks, but it's not clever enough. We will fix this.

It's probably too late to do anything about it by now but the link to the article on 'tabnabbing' gave me a 'Forbidden 403' error.
I have resolved this for myself by googling for 'tabnabbing' and so do not need a functioning link.
