The other day, it was at 96%. This morning, it was at 88%. Now, a few hours later, it’s at 80%. What’s going on?

I’ve started a few communities and like it here. I try to be nice and upbeat. My posts have been received well, not seeing downvotes…

Edit: I’m marking this solved. I understand it now. Thank you all for being so helpful!

Edit Edit: After days of upvoting, I’m back at 96%. I juked the stats!

    in my experience, reputation doesn’t really show up unless the user has a bad rep… they’re marked by a few caution signs

    also… for reputation: from source 1 - “The ‘Rep’ column is their reputation. As you can see, some people have been downvoted thousands of times. They’re not going to change their ways, are they?” from source 2 - “People who get downvoted a lot end up with a ‘low reputation’ indicator next to their name. You’ll know it when you see it.”

      Thank you. Makes sense. Just realizing now I had to ban a guy for stealing my posts yesterday and didn’t really see mod tools that described him. I did notice he was getting destroyed by others for being a troll though.
