Question

So when I am in the site looking a lot of things and questions I am losing two points.Right now I have 446 points and before 30 minutes I had 450 points , I lost 4 points without anyone downvoting me .If anyone down vote me I will lose 10 points not 2. Why is this happening again and again ?

Answer 1

Down voting = -2 points.

Asking/answering questions gives you 0 points.

Selcting best answer gives you 2 points

Getting best answer gives you 20 points

Getting up-voted gives you 10 points

Getting down-voted makes you lose 10 points

Down-voting makes you lose 2 points

Pokebase Point Equation: (# of BA selected)x2 + (# of UpVotes)x10 + (# of BA)x20 - (# of Down-Votes given)x2 - (# of DownVotes)x10

Notes:
Questions/answers on the meta don't add points to your actual score. however there is (If you care) a meta points system. http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/7021/is-there-a-seperate-point-system-for-meta
http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/users

These point values are subject to change as Pokemaster sees fit. They've changed in the past, and certainly can change again.

I got down voted and lost 8 points. HELP!

Down voting = -10 points.

---

When you downvote, -2.

---

Also, it's LOSING, not LOOSING.

See here :
16 answers chosen as best :  20 (points from best answers) * 16 = 320 points
Received 33 up votes : 33 * 10 (points) = 330 points
330+320=650 points
Received 9 down votes : 9 * 2 points (you said that 1 down vote = 2) = 18 points
Right now i have 484 points
650-18= 632 points , 632-484=148 points are mising ,where are they ?

No, you're taking this wrong.

When you receive a down-vote, that's 10 points.

Which makes it 90 instead of 18.

And every time you give out a down-vote you lose 2 points.
Meaning you've lost 108 points from down-voting others.

Oh really ? that's right then thanks
