I just feel sorry for the guy that answered. He's got +685 upvotes at time of writing and no dvs so he should have ~ 7,000 points from this, but apparently SO imposes a daily cap of 200.
- davweb 15y agoI think the Daily Cap is intended for situations just like this. So if you see someone with 5k+ reputation it's a good sign they've given good answers to a fair few questions (or asked good questions) over a period of time rather than just got lucky with a question that found its way on to Twitter. Because reputation entitles you do certain things like close questions SO is careful about how you can earn it.
- retube 15y agoYeah makes sense. Still, I'd be a bit gutted :)
