First and foremost, quality contributions and interactions are most important. I enjoy contributing and interacting with the community which is the primary reason why I do what I do.
With this said, I would like to point out that the profile point and statistics system has become quite inconsistent.
At around 8:00pm Atlantic Time tonight (before some change), my profile stated that:
- I had 3285 profile points
- The points history graph indicated that I had 3435 points, +573
Now (approx 9:30pm Atlantic Time tonight, after some change), my profile says:
- I have 3117 profile points
- The points history graph indicates that I have 3267 points, +405 this month
Obviously the profile points and the graph is out of sync in both cases and that some update has occurred that has recalculated profile points overall.
For additional investigation purposes, I am providing the following details:

After looking at some other profiles, I believe I am not the only one who experiencing these issues... I know there have been some inconsistencies between the profile points and the points history chart for about at least a week that I have noticed but it
is now affecting other profile areas... Can someone on the team please look into the issues I have identified?
Thanks,

Profile points, point history graph, pie charts and stats are inconsistent - what's going on?
