Chutes and Ladders

Some of our most eagle-eyed members noticed a bit of motion on the points leaderboard the other day. Some users moved up a bunch of places and some moved down.

So, what's going on? We've been working on making the playing field fairer. Specifically, we removed points from users who were abusing the system, and we restored points to users who were being abused. For anyone who cares, we are doing our best to make the points as fair as possible. But no matter how many safeguards we put in place, there is always room for people to work counter to the spirit of wis.dm.

So, it is really up to all of you to help. If you see someone abusing the system, let them know that it isn't okay. And by all means, continue using using the flagging to highlight questions that are inappropriate, spam, etc. Just be fair. And if you need us, you can always reach the wis.dm team at feedback@wis.dm.
