Do points go down as well as up?
Help
Hi I just wanted to ask if we get points
deducted or penalties? My points seem
to go up and down a lot. Maybe we
could get notified if they do go down so we know if we made a mistake.
What do you think of this?+20 points

Hey saiah001
There's only two occasions where you might lose points:
- The first is if you share a deal that's already been shared. If it's marked as a duplicate we remove it from LD and, unfortunately, your points go down too. You should get a notification if a post that you've shared is removed for this reason.
- The other is if a comment of yours gets deleted - you'll lose the points you earned for commenting. Unfortunately we don't have notifications in place for this yet but I've just added it to our to-do list
We rarely have cause to delete any comments so I'd imagine what's happened is that someone was a little quicker off the mark sharing a deal than you and so unfortunately your post was removed.
Hope that clears things up - we definitely don't deduct or remove any points as a penalty or anything like that. If you have any more questions please just shout!
