Mar 13, 2021 at 15:14 comment added Joseph Sible-Reinstate Monica I just had this happen too, on a site where I only had 2 upvotes ever, and the one that got reversed was originally cast on January 5th.
Mar 13, 2021 at 10:33 comment added Shadow Wizard @Sonic indeed, that makes a lot of sense. Hopefully staff will come over to confirm.
Mar 12, 2021 at 23:52 comment added Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog There was a past case where a group of users were voting themselves up, and they had voted on a bunch of other posts outside of their ring to "prove" that their votes were legitimate. I think that may be the case.
Mar 12, 2021 at 23:26 comment added Ryan M Same here, -20 on a site where I don't even have much rep (and nothing that looks particularly serial). Was some wide action (intentionally?) taken by staff? I can live without my 20 rep, but I'm at least curious what happened. :-)
Mar 12, 2021 at 23:22 comment added Ollie Me too: meta.stackexchange.com/users/798831/ollie?tab=reputation, again a single upvote.
Mar 12, 2021 at 23:09 comment added Glorfindel Mod Yeah, that could be. Then at least it shouldn't link to the article about serial voting. Sonic's scenario could be plausible in other cases, but if it's not just me, the 'random voter' scenario is more likely.
Mar 12, 2021 at 23:08 comment added Makyen Oh, and just if you were wondering, in this particular case, it was the reversal of a single upvote, not the reversal of 5 suggested edits (nor in combination with the reversal of up to 5 of the +2 rep you get for accepting an answer).
Mar 12, 2021 at 23:00 comment added Journeyman Geek Mod FWIW, I got one of these too. I wonder if it was a user who voted indiscriminately, there was talk of one in the past
Mar 12, 2021 at 22:52 comment added Makyen That reversal happened at 21:43:06UTC. That's definitely not the automatic reversal script, which runs at about 03:00UTC. It's definitely manual. Manual reversals can easily be for any number of votes and may be the result of an investigation spanning many different users (both which voted and were voted upon), with some users affected by a large number of votes, while others may only be affected by a vote or two. That it shows up in your achievements as "Serial voting was reversed" is probably not the best way for it to be indicated.
Mar 12, 2021 at 22:50 comment added Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog Manual voting corrections by staff will also show the same way as automatic serial voting corrections in rep histories.
