I didn’t visit Habr for about 2 weeks, but last night I left a comment in a fresh topic of the Ubuntulogy blog. I log in in three hours... and lo and behold, my rating drops from 27.5 to 3.5... but the most surprising thing is that no one has rated the comment, its rate is 0.

Can someone explain what's wrong?

PS old comments were not downvoted, I checked.

PPS mb this is a stupid question, but still you don’t need to minus it already ... well, please don’t spit into karma, it’s really strange simple.

I can assume that the pluses for the comment about the Nobel Prize have expired. The terms and the amount of the rating are similar.

The rating tends to zero over time, because too old comments cease to have an impact on it. The rating is an indicator of current activity - the higher it is, the more positive activity from a person over the last month (I can be wrong about a month, but like a month)
, karma is not subject to this principle and reflects the attitude of the community towards a person for the entire time of registration

Similarly, apparently, this is what we would be sitting on Habré day and night.

There is also such a moment that in Q&A you can vote even when there are no votes (that is, karma >= 0), but if there are votes, then they are still subtracted.
PS The ratings on Habré are abnormal, so I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature...

Since the formula for calculating the rating was not openly published, it would be strange to be offended by the "unfair calculation", since it is still the same for everyone.
There is an assumption why this could happen: most likely, the recalculation of the rating is triggered when performing some action. Since you have not been on the site for a long time, after the comment was published, the low activity over the last period was also taken into account, which was reflected in the rating.
