This weird, I had maybe 4-5 reps from coffe house and it drop too much for me, from 4 bars to only one. Why so? Minimum 75% of my reputation was hard worked for in tech forums, reporting span, double posting etc.

I do not want add extra work to Dani, but if she can contact each member with his/her full printout of reputation befor deduction and mark reputation which will be not counted that would be nice

Remember, when someone with a lot of rep power gives you positive reputation, it impacts your rep more than someone with a little rep power. What you're noticing is most likely happening because of people like Christina who had a LOT of Geek's Lounge reputation, and so one rep from her outweighed like 10 posts from newbies thanking you for solving their technical problems. That reputation is now gone. However, EVERYONE'S reputation has decreased significantly. In the long run, reputation will be more accurate moving forward.

You do realize there are 200,000 members, right? But ... umm ... what would be the benefit to this? Posts that you've received positive rep from in the Coffee House are still displayed inline within the posts and the latest reputation in your control panel and member profile still includes Coffee House rep.

Good point dani. Can we please make the grey rep once something then? even if its only like 1 or else people who help newbies who might post only once get penilized

p.s does rep from the lounges and watercooler still count? thats hardly technical and if were gonna not count the coffeehouse, surely we shouldnt count that?

Difficult to get your calculations Dani, I had what 460 something points? Now I landed 94. You trying to tell me that 350 reputation gone beacuse of that....

Yes, I was always against reputation from coffe house but to loose my reputation builded in tech forums is not fair

Are you sure you taking rep from coffe house only and not some others too?

Dani, you just made my day. Thank you so much for this, reputation is much more accurate and looks a lot more like it was about 7 months ago. A much-needed band-aid; reputation is now a bit meaningful.
