Is anyone having a problem with their rep points?
When I clicked on my reputation points recently, I noticed that I had only received about four points total for the past few days. I have probably voted at least ten or more times daily. It just continues to say I have zero points every time I vote.
Has this happened to anyone else? Heidite says that Q is sure to know.

I'm having problems. I can't seem to grab ahold of that elusive K.
Oh! Nicole I just remembered that the same thing happens to me if I vote up too many people too quickly.
For instance, if I log on and find something good and vote it up, I get a point. But if I vote again too soon after that, I get 0. I'm not sure why that is, or what the rule is about that. But that did happen to me.
I'm sorry I forgot about that! ![]()
Yes, I see the same problem. If I look on my reputation tab, I see one vote that gave me one point and about 25 votes that gave me zero. Before that I was getting one point each time I voted someone up. This seems to happen to me intermittently. It will give points for a while and then it won't give points for a while.
I have never gotten 200 points in one day. I thought you could only receive 10 points (one at a time) per day for voting other people up. But that doesn't seem to hold true either. I have never mentioned it, because I'm here to share and learn, and I don't care about the points all that much. But I do agree that they don't seem to be working consistently.
I just had a thought. Could it be because I have completed lessons and earned points for them? I do see that over the last 2 days when I completed a lesson each day, that I did not earn any rep points for voting others up. Do the lesson points count in your 200 points per day? Maybe this is the reason.
I notice that Lazarus is selling his points , as I am in desperate need of
filthy lucra I shall also sell mine but realise I will need a better selling
feature to pip Lazarus therefore I am offering myself with the reputation points.

I sell my reputation points! Very cheap!! Credit cards accepted.
No one is voting for me.My ego is touching the ground lower than my knuckles when,I walk.
Yeah, I just got 0 points for the last two times I have been voted up...¿?¿? Is there a limit of how much you can get voted up in one day?
I have noticed this in other user's profiles - it actually says "received 0 points" for voting for something.
I´ve found some of my points sneaking out late at night or watching TV when they should be sleeping. A few of them won´t clean their rooms, and some back talk me. One or two ran away to other forums. So, yes, overall, I´m having problems with my rep points, too. I wonder how some people can get their rep points to behave so well.
Call me perezoso, but I only checked a couple of threads... when does this "chimerical" 24-hr period begin for counting points? I realize this has been discussed ad nauseam but perhpas someone can just tell me or point (no pun intended!) me in the right direction to ascertain the answer. If you hit the limit of 200 and the day hasn't expired yet, do you get retroactive credit? jeje Say, when the 24-hr clock resets? Not worried about points (really!) but just would like to know how the system works...and time to do something else besides Spanishdict.com!! Should be called "Spanish-addict" dot com....

Since I am always voting posts up, I never see anything except zeros in the detailed area of my points area.
I have noticed that sometimes I need to do a browser reset for it to show my latest points. The only reason I know this is because I don't know of any other way to check if I have messages, except going to my reputation page. And I can have a message waiting for me that I don't see, if I don't refresh the browser.
And, since I often work through the night, I have noticed that your 24 hour period before you get zeroed out again varies from day to day. I just thought this was due to the fact that the server needs to be backed up and (sometimes) reset every day. So the 24 hour period would naturally coincide with when these maintenance operations take place.
I get 0 most of the time voting others. Well... I do anyhow ![]()
I do as well...my points reset to zero yesterday, well before my 24 hour period. Actually, my wife noticed it. I don't know why. Other times I get voted up on something and receive zero points for it.
Yes, I did say that, I really have no idea. However, if I vote for you it works fine, I don't know.
