I noticed that the reputation shown for meta sites in the site list dropdown differs rather greatly from the main site reputation:    For example, there's a gap of ~2k on AU and AU meta (~1.5%), ~600 on U&amp;L (~1.7%), and so on - the gap decreasing with total rep.  The differences are too large to be accounted for by recent changes in rep (~2k is my rep change on AU for this quarter so far), so simple caching is unlikely to be the cause.  Oddly, in meta sites, the rep shown in the top bar is correct (the screenshot above is taken from AU Meta), as is the rep in the user profile page, or that shown in posts by the user.  This screenshot was taken on Safari on macOS High Sierra, but the same thing was seen on Chrome on iOS and on Android.

While using the top bar to navigate across communities, I noticed that the reputation displayed on meta sites on that list does not match the one of their corresponding main sites:    I have noticed on past situations that reputation gained takes a bit to "update" on the display on Meta sites (that is, if you gain rep on SO, for example, it will take some time for you to see your updated rep on MSO).  However, I have never noticed this behavior here, on the Sites List of the top bar. Furthermore, the "delay" here seems to be more severe, as the "outdated" rep showed is of several days ago (for example, I turned 3k on SO almost exactly a week ago, but the rep shown on MSO is still &lt;3k).  Any idea what could be causing this behavior?    Update: 2 months later this persists: my main site rep updates correctly but their corresponding meta rep remains the same as in the image above.     Update: As per Catija's  I removed the site (MSO) and put it back in, but it didn't update the rep.   However, after removing one site (TWP Meta), waiting at least a day, and then adding it back I see that although the reputations still don't match, the number displayed did changed a bit (previously 29,924 but now 33,112):

Here is a screenshot of my reputation information box.  The green +5 next to the 1,892 seems a bit too high. The numbers on the graph also look not quite right, and in fact, looking at the tooltip when moving over it, it is in the wrong place numerically.   It happens on both Firefox and Google Chrome.

Just noticed the "meta user" link under the picture and reputation on the Stack Exchange user's page. It doesn't seem to work for all users. Error is "Page Not Found".   Not working:  /  Working:  /    My guess is this is because they've never logged into the meta site.

On Stack Overflow, when I look on my account it currently shows 1,040 reputation. However the graph shows 100 more reputation, sitting at 1,140.  Is there some sort of bug or error happening to cause this? How can I fix this?

It seems a couple minutes ago, a change was applied to the styling of the homepage, with users' rep scores now being much darker (and standing out more):        Compare with the former light grey colouring (image courtesy of ):        Is this intentional? If so, why? It highlights something that's not really relevant, in my opinion.

When you accept an answer on one of your questions, you get 2 reputation for it. The achievements dropdown tells you with a shiny green +2 on the topbar, and shows this:    Why did I get +2 for it again?  It would be better if the message told you it was because you accepted an answer, right there in the dropdown, without the need to go into your profile to see more details.

(Posted here as probably applies to all sites).  I was examining my reputation gain yesterday on Stack Overflow: 190. I believe I should have hit the 200 cap. Mainly due to         Respectively, I had 10, 7, 3, and 2 upvotes on those questions alone. There are a couple of other minnows in the list but the above alone should enable me to hit the cap.  There was a user removed sometime yesterday which knocked off 10 points (and possibly accounts for the disparity) but I think (1) the cap should have been recalibrated and (2) I answered (3) after this event before turning in for the night.  I checked all the usual suspects: the reputation graph on your profile and  the achievements tab, but they are all showing 190.

When I look at my reputation on stackoverflow I see one number, but when I look at my profile in the careers.stackoverflow I see another number.  Is it just slow to update (maybe it's a few days behind...)?  UPDATE:  Looks like this problem has been solved.  As of 5-28-14 my reputation levels in stackoverflow and careers.stackoverflow are now consistent.  Thanks to those doing the fixing!

I just took a look at meta today and noticed something weird in the meta privileges. If you look at the meta privilege list, you can see that at . I know that there is no meta for meta, and the link they give you in the privilege page leads you to meta.stackexchange.com, right where you started. Why do they have this privilege? I have a feeling that this is a bad recursive joke. You must be  member of meta to get the privilege of being a member of meta! :)

While I was perusing  today, I noticed that it stated my all-time rep was 412 when it actually is 453 (as of now). Does this reputation take time to update itself? (I had gotten a few upvotes just before I checked). I'm just curious.

When I went to the  to see my ranking in the reputation league, I saw this. Is this an error? My total reputation is less than my monthly reputation.

Update (March, 2012): This has been rolled out to all sites in the network.    Behind the scenes we've been hard at work making some changes to how we track reputation.  Here are some of the issues we're aiming to address with these changes:   Reputation Skew (your actual reputation doesn't match what's shown) Up/Down votes oddities (mostly with the daily rep cap, the magical +2) Historical Deletes (not impacting rep immediately, contributing to skew) Unaccepts (display issues in the profile) User Deletion (magically missing rep, another skew contributor)   To be clear: reputation values are not changing, every action in the system is still worth the same amount.   Here’s what will be different:   Your reputation will be correct at all times Deletions will have a much more immediate effect on reputation, not waiting on a recalc  (but reputation sync takes up to 5 minutes on a delete/undelete action; as to not block the user's response thread, it's offloaded to a background queue) Recalcs will no longer be necessary Up/Down vote reversals will restore the correct reputation amount Up/Down vote reversals will correctly adjust to the reputation cap The reputation history in your profile will be more detailed and accurate (e.g. when a post is deleted, you'll see that in the reputation tab of your profile)   This means your reputation will go up and down more than it has previously, but it will be in sync.  To think of it more easily: imagine that a recalc will be done after every action in the system.  Probably the biggest impact many will be concerned with is that you may see your reputation drop in cases where it didn't seem like it did before  This was effectively happening before, but the results of that change were not applied immediately, but on the next rep recalc.  Post deletion is the biggest factor here, previously it didn't (immediately) account for the reputation impact...that will no longer be the case.  Reputation changes from the deletion will now be applied within the hour, and most other changes will be instant.  Now the part that will make everyone throw vegetables our way:  this will require a global recalc to get everything in sync.  We'll be rolling it out first here on meta, then the rest of the network...the enabling of the detailed rep view and global recalc on each individual site will coincide.  During the rollout you will see empty reputation tabs on profiles as we transition to the new storage behind the scenes, they'll be restored as the recalc rolls though each user.  We’ll put up a blog post on  before the network-wide rollout.  If you have any questions about this change or details I may have left out, please do so in answers below so that we can clear up as much as possible before this rolls out.

My  shows this: . The header of the Movies and TV site shows this:  This difference has persisted for well over 6 months. I reported it back in August 2012 (where the numbers were 833 and 941, respectively. Consensus at that time was that it was a caching issue. I think the duration of the difference shows that there really is a mismatch somewhere. For me the rep (either way) is not an important issue, but if this reveals a bug somewhere it's at least good to know it exists, I guess. Edit Two day after rep recalculation as suggested by JoachimSauer below: no difference (other sites' statistics are updated).

Is there any reason behind the ghost reputation we gain on the meta of a Stack Exchange site? This reputation doesn't add up to anything, but it still shows me I have gained some. Is this supposed to make any sense?

(or at least those of use who have asked positive questions), is there going to be any change to the rep required for, as an example, ? I can see myself suddenly getting a significant chunk of rep, and that may push me past the 25k boundary required for "Access to site analytics". I'm not any more knowledgeable than I was prior to the calculation though, so does this make sense?  Are rep boundaries like those for the association bonus, privileges, commenting etc. going to be adjusted? Or is this adjustment meant to more accurately reflect the site knowledge associated with asking a good question, so no change will happen?

I  and while on other sites I did not get a 'Reputation Notification' to explain that I was given 2 upvotes for my answer - yet if I manually check my Profile here at meta.SE my total Reputation is in agreement with the amount there.  I'm not knowledgeable about the intercommunication between the servers and sites but I would explain it this way: Super User either failed to send or other sites failed to receive the message the I had a reputation update on Super User.  I should have received either two green star trophies (🏆) of 10 reputation each or one of 20; depending on when I returned to one of the Stack Exchange / Stack Overflow / Super User / etc. sites.  Here's a screenshot showing no reputation change notification for Super User:    Here's a screenshot of my Profile over at Super User showing that I was silently credited:    I'm bringing this up on Meta.SE in case the communication is broken between more sites than just Super User and everywhere else.

My reputation listing is showing that on Mar 4 and 5, some of my answers got unaccepted, but when I go to those answers, they are still showing as accepted -- they still have the green check mark. Can somebody please explain what is happening with my profile?     Here are three of the answers that are listed above:
