I guess we have a bug then. See my original message here.
I edited this[^] message about 1 hour after I posted it (changed a 's' to a 'd' so very minor edit) but when I was editing it I noticed the [Modified] tags in subject weren't there, I figured they'd show up on posting but didn't. So I posted the bug report. But when Dalek Dave told me it was working for him I tested again with message from this thread and then it worked as well for me.
I forgot to check what server I was on, if it happens again I'll check it.

Chris,
here[^] is a recent conversation where the OP ended by adding "SOLVED" to the subject line, and a solution to the message, while no "modified at..." sentence is to be seen.

Today morning i found that total reputation has been added as few were suggesting.
Though a little confusion on it, couldn't find it in Reputation FAQ either. How is the total reputation level decided? Like a member having 11000 points is GOLD or SILVER on what basis. I believe there must be some sort of chart range for this too. Right?modified on Wednesday, March 17, 2010 3:55 AM

The color codes are in the FAQ, except for the total color; that one is new; I know platinum starts below 10K.

The new(total rep) one is missing for now. Want to know that one only if published somewhere!

It doesn't look like Platinum starts below 10K... i have 12K and i am still a GOLD! ![Smile | :)](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/smiley_smile.gif)

I have 8631 and I'm silver so I guess it goes something like:
2500+ = bronze (just a wild guess here )
5000+ = silver
10000+ = gold
15000+ = platinum (another one of those wild guesses could be 20k as well )
|
|
|
|

If guess is the case...
I think, its the highest reputation one has that is assigned as a total reputation.
Thus, if i had achieved a GOLD at max in any of the category i am a GOLD reputed overall.
Thus no total points based, but on highest reputation attained!!

Then I would be platinum since I have that for debator.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I can't that's the problem
See my message to that person here[^]
I guess we'll have to wait and see how it looks after Chris ran the update.

This is a bug and could be related to the previous bug for which a fix will be uploaded today. cheers,

To give an upper bound, 36k total scores as platinum... 3x12=36
2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

I analyzed it a bit further, found these accounts:
Naveen Karamchetti: author silver 4410, all others white, total silver 4690
Trenton Moss: author gold 8055, all others white, total gold 8164
brianwelsch: debator platinum 9207, all others white, total platinum 9750
roger allen: author gold 6905, debator platinum 2633, all others white, total gold 10213
and that lead me to these conclusions:
- total color does not have fixed thresholds;
- total color is the color of the highest rep number.

I too had same analysis. But Tom himself is an odd one out! See the replies above...

I have changed the wording of the tooltip to make this clearer. It shows your highest achieved level.
This "highest achieved" value isn't used for anything. We use individual rep types when deciding on features available.cheers,

Nope. That is not what I said, and I do not believe it to be true either.

I suggest you look again into the "total color" of the three accounts mentioned in my above message.
The two pages are now in agreement, the total color still is the color of the numerically highest rep component.
|
|
|
|
|
Although I did find some more total-rep-color mistakes early on after the update, all is OK now. Total color now equals highest color for all the accounts I checked (about 200, I have a little utility that does it of course).

When I post an answer in Quick Answers my rep score is showing up only as;
Rep: (1,064)
Which is a bit strange as previous answers show up as;
Rep: 3,623 (4,687)
Not sure if this is the cause but I posted an answer to a question that was deleted while I posted the answer. ![Roll eyes | :rolleyes:](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/smiley_rolleyes.gif)

Has been reported.
Chris fixed it and should be updating somewhere today.

It seems I have a total rep shown as a platinum.
But hang one, I was a gold member, and now I have a total that sums to platinum.
Great.
But I liked being a Gold, knowing that Platinums were top members.
Gold gave me allowances that were denied me as a platinum, I do not deserve a platinum membership, please allow me the rights of a gold, (That I have never abused), and allow me to work to be a platinum in time.------------------------------------
I will never again mention that I was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel. Dalek Dave

I'm not agreeing or disagreeing here Dave, I'm 'on the fence' over some parts of the new system.
The new reputation system (I think) is trying to reward members for their contribution to the site overall and not primarily focusing on answering PQs and writing articles.
CP is more than just that. The Lounge for example, for many, is the heart of this site and many rarely stray from there. They are still valuable members of the CP community and make the site the wonderful place it is. People who are prolific in such forums can now be recognised for their contribution in that area. If that, as in your case, leads to them becoming Platinum overall, then that is deserved just as much as if they had written 25+ high quality articles as it was before.
CP without guys such as yourself would be so much less and I'm glad they now receive more prominent recognition.Dave
