The other day, it was at 96%. This morning, it was at 88%. Now, a few hours later, it’s at 80%. What’s going on?

I’ve started a few communities and like it here. I try to be nice and upbeat. My posts have been received well, not seeing downvotes…

Edit: I’m marking this solved. I understand it now. Thank you all for being so helpful!

Edit Edit: After days of upvoting, I’m back at 96%. I juked the stats!

    Average attitude is about 66%, btw.

    Attitude can be below zero, if downvotes are more common than upvotes. So the range is -100% to 100%.

      Far bigger range than I was expecting. Ok, I guess I’m doing fine. Thank you for chiming in!

      Really? That’s a little disheartening.

      I’m sitting at 98%.

      Edit: oh, I see it can go to -100. It adds up now.

      Maybe the scale could be more clear?

      Edit2: Something like:

      80% (positive)

      and

      90% (negative)

      for -90%

      Or ideally something better.
