Does anyone know of any issues with the karma ratings? My rating has been ping-ponging back an forth between 3.08 and 3.09 for the past few days, and as far as I can tell no ones rating me up nor down. It doesn't really matter, it's just really odd :) Anyone else have this problem?

As I understand it, the reason your rating bounces between one point and the next has to do with the math used to create your "average post score".
Each time you make a new post, you add to your total postcount, but the fact that your postcount has changed means the math of averaging your overall score also churns out a number that fluctuates, particularly when you're right at the cusp between one point and another point. (I believe some rounding of numbers may be involved; also, some spinning chickens and shaving of cats may also be involved)
Either making more posts, or being quiet and getting a few solid rate-ups should stabilize it in one direction or the other.

Thank you very much :) It was gettin' pretty odd. Pretty much every other post I make, it changes, back and forth. Those bloody shaved chickens and cats! :) Thanks again!
