losing fame?

[frogger5687]

well i noticed today that my fame is 17 which used to be 34 any known reason for the decline? or just some bug? (ive noticed that alot of the site is buggy ;ast couple of days lots of broken links and stuff like that)

There have been some power issues in the areas of where some of these servers are at, this would most likely be the cause of your issue. An Admin will have to investigate further though.

Actually WarcraftMovies has introduced some new fame features that now makes your fame decrease if you are inactive or something.

My fame used to be 100 but is now 85.

Here is the news article:

"We have done a revamp on the current Fame and Rating system; Rather than getting points for a simple login, Fame is now rewarded for months on our site. In addition, the amount of fame you can gather from downloads, comments and ratings has been slightly adjusted. Furthermore, down-rating without proper cause, also known as "Trolling", that results in a warning will now have negative effect on the fame points. These changes will hopefully mirror Fame to the actual commitment of the user.

More Fame and Rating features incoming, stay tuned."

This wouldn't have affected them in the last two days though, that feature was added about 3 weeks ago.

[Terwilliger]

So it isn't an ongoing thing? It was just an update?

I thought it was a whole revamp of the Fame system and whenever you got a warning it went down a few.

While this hasn't occured to me in quite awhile, it did like a few months ago. Hmm it was quite awhile but I know I had over 65 fame, and now I'm at 59. I don't mind it, just didn't know why my fame dropped to about 50 or so.

If you dont want to loose fame, just dont do anything negative xD

[Valamir]

Pretty much. I only comment on stuff unless it is going to be constructive or they really need to know. Saves you the trouble of possible warnings and flames.

[DlouBent]

I still think when you watch a movie it deserves a comment though

[Uzbeki]

It was a one time change ,the only things that can affect your fame now is if you either had a movie removed or if you got a warning.

[DlouBent]

oh great ;)

...or other secret reasons (warnings & removed movies excluded here). Just wanted to mention it, because until now I got no explanation for the famepoints of mine that vanished into the air...Uzbeki...?

Grrrrr - eatings

maybe I should rephrase myself, "the only things that should affect" :P
I have not forgotten about you Dwârv. I am still following up on the platinum lead.

[Dwârv]

You are my hero, Uzbeki.
And I should learn some more patience, sorry.

[Uzbeki]

Good news, the platinum lead was correct. Now I just have to fix it.

[Uzbeki]

Solved :) Your fame should soon update with the correct amount.

[Dwârv]
