Looking through your reputation, they all are still there.

Looking through your reputation, they all are still there.

Ok. I assum that you can see the full list, but I can only see the top 8.

[rah]

You are correct. I'm able to see all of them for each member.

MVP has now been redefined: Many Vulnerable Posts

So you intend to keep your position as a Senior Member?

Why are people so fascinated by things like rep score?

I just now noticed my rep total has gone down! I can't say by how much because I don't remember exactly what it was....but it dropped somewhere between ~50 and ~120.

I guess because it was here (and it never should have been), therefore noticed, therefore certainly noticed when it changes.

Where do you see these top 8?

Where do you see these top 8?

You have to be logged into your account.

Then

1. Click on the Forum banner.
2. In the upper right corner click at the settings link.
3. There I see the: Latest Reputation Received (5114 point(s) total) and the last 8 given.

Why are people so facinated about their reputation? The WPW Rep system is not as I have stated repeatedly on this forum the main reason that I am here. But now we can experience SERPs with broken WP links to threads / posts.

Example. I search like this to find a thread or more precisely the exact post (often I find the exact post):

drtandem kgun what is spam site:webproworld.com

to reach the exact last post in the thread

http://www.webproworld.com/webmaster...5-What-is-spam

as the second hit on the SERP.

So now if I do a similar search

deepsand janeth kgun web2.0 site:webproworld.com

I find the thread today, but the query is relatively meaningless (insemantic) since there are no posts by us.

By a Google recrawl and reindexing, the thread may not be found at all. Does those insemantic hits on the google SERPs and potentially broken links improve the WPW position / reputation in the Google index?

This

drtandem kgun "what is spam?" site:webproworld.com

is even better.

Since kgun9 is on the web (I don't know who wesre first they or I) a loot of my posts get kgn9 noise, so i more generally search

kgun -kgun9 object oriented programming

For one reason or another this

kgun object oriented programming

is now a better search in my opinion. No noise from kgun9 in the top position there.

But compare this

fiancial information kgun

financial information kgun -kgun9

It is difficult to remove the noise from kgun9.
