| Mar 19, 2010 at 3:18 | comment | added | dmckee --- ex-moderator kitten | @S.Mark: The bad part is, some of those folks will be innocent. That is the big advantage that the increased downvote would have had: leaving the question heavy users who haven't accumulated a lot of ill will lightly touched. | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 3:04 | comment | added | uɐɯsO uɐɥʇɐN | Exactly. Oh well :) | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 3:03 | comment | added | YOU | @dmckee, I see, so it effects past posts, I think I am going to see some people came here, and claim about "Hey, I lost half of my reps, Fix Please" :P | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 3:00 | comment | added | dmckee --- ex-moderator kitten | It says above that the change would be applied retroactively. | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 2:59 | comment | added | YOU | Your definition of Recalc might be correct, but I think its still depends on Jeff's implementation. | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 2:57 | comment | added | dmckee --- ex-moderator kitten | I'll only lose on order of 100 points. I'd has lost more the other way. | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 2:57 | comment | added | uɐɯsO uɐɥʇɐN | Recalc means existing stuff gets recalculated. And I would be content witnessing Jon Skeet lose even 1 point! | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 2:55 | comment | added | YOU | George, I believe existing posts wouldn't lose any reps, not sure with reps recalc though. @Jeff, any ideas on reps recalc? | |
| Mar 19, 2010 at 2:55 | comment | added | waiwai933 | Nope. He hasn't received that many votes on his questions. | |
