Ranking system going crazy?

I was bombarded yesterday (Sunday) with notifications telling me my rank had changed - see the attached screenshot. I'm sure at the end of it I have actually been demoted and my post count reduced from around 260 previously, IIRC!

We have seen this issue with a couple of other users where their kudos points were removed or a fix reassigned which caused their rank to bounce up and down over a few days.
Have you received any further notifications about your rank? Do you know if you had a fix or thanks revoked at any point while this was happening? I can't divulge the formula but a fix equates to 10 thanks in the total points for a rank to be obtained (along with other constants that shouldn't diminish like time registered and total logins). I can't see any posts that have been removed either so I can rule that out.
I will raise another support case with Lithium to look into this. Sending the email now.

jaread83, I only received the four notifications shown in the screengrab in short succession yesterday. I'm not aware of any fix/thanks revocations - I certainly had no notifications to that effect.

Although probably not the main concern of this post, Aspiring Pro is the rank above Rising Star

In the feed it doesn't bounce up and down exactly though. North was notified about the same rank twice in a row in the screenshot which strikes me as a bit odd.

I am convinced a few people have been black balled on the rankings.

@gleneagles I'm surprised that got past the naughty words filter

I just had a look around the system settings and there isn't a way to turn off notifications for going up or down in ranks. That's a shame.

It seems every time a post is edited in a thread you are subscribed to you get a notification both for the subscription and if you have an '@' mention in that post

Ah! But 'fixed' has alternative meanings in Lithium speak?
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

I have a seperate support ticket for the multiple @ mentions in the notification feed. It has gone up to the product developers to look into.

And 'All Star' is apparently the rank above 'Seasoned Pro' - sounds more like a 90's girlie band
I'm currently bouncing between the two
