yes.

Certainly have, but it's not enough points to be angry over for me. I virtually never moderate, because the pursuit of points for level's sake alone is an empty well. : )

Yes.. I don't care about the points, but they completely fail at moderation. It's like they ONLY look at the question, and not any of the answers or comments. Usually the comments are the only proof that a question is spam.

Interesting... ...I kinda felt I was "slighted" a few points too. I don't know for sure, but I believe the points you're awarded depends a lot on who's screening your flags. Sometimes it seems like every question I flag is approved. Other times, less than half. Call it "karmic justice". AB members are pissed when their questions are flagged, flaggers are pissed when their points aren't awarded. It all evens out...!

I do not think it was intentionally cheating me but a mistake was made by a new Moderator 18 months ago and she lost me over 6000 Moderation points. I did not care about the points but it lost me 4% on my Moderation percentages. Rich was on Holiday at the time but he admitted it had been a mistake but said nothing could be done manually so my percentages are still 4% down.

1) "Powers to be"? Do you mean the moderators? 2) Some time ago, moderation points were not given after an account was rejected as a spam account. I read somewhere that it was the result of a bug. My "+% percentage" in moderation sank from about 96% down to 93% at that time, and I could not get it higher since then. It does not seem that this is still happening, though. ----- (ADDED 1) ----- I just fell one moderation point down to 92% , for a similar reason, I guess. I flagged a lot of answers as spam and never got the points, so my percentage sank. The flagging was already more than 24 hours ago, so they must have the time to review it. ----- (ADDED 2) ----- It took some time, but it seems that I got those moderation points in the end... (again by 93%)

I wouldn't say "cheated" but I might be missing some. I'm more annoyed at my moderation percentage never returning to where I believe it should be.

Yup... In all honesty, I don't care, I don't care if we never get points for it - I just want the spam gone, and things in the right places. I would like it if my Moderation % looked better though.
