Lost individual kudos, kept kudo ranking.

When I merged my account with my Subversion identity this weekend, I lost all my kudos.

I read the FAQ and saw that they would come back later, and they did, in a way:

It says I have a kudo ranking of 7, but that I have recived no kudos.

Before the merge I could see the individual kudos given to me, which is by far the most interesting part of the system, since it indicates who is interested in ones projects.

This was saturday or sunday, and now it's thursday. Can I expect them to come back or is it a bug?

Hi Joakim,

I assume that you must be referring to project Haxe Highlighter.

Unfortunately I can't find any trace of kudos to anyone on this project. There's no evidence that any individual kudos ever existed.

If our system is deleting kudos, that would certainly be interesting and would need fixing, but I need more help to find the problem. Can you give me any more details? Can you remember who sent you the kudos?

I'll do some more testing, but in the meantime if you can remember any details that would be very helpful.

Thanks,
Robin

I'm afraid I don't have a very good idea who gave me their kudos, since I didn't take the time to check them before merging. I didn't realize anybody had given me kudos until I had already reached rank 7. If there is a bug, it is just as likely that I somehow received them in error (I was quite surprised by it, anyway).

@tong might have given me his kudos, as the only active user of that project besides me (at least that I know of). It is also possible that people from the Haxe community gave me kudos, although I wouldn't know who.

The kudos were given to the ahnfelt svn user at #haxe-highlighter. When I merged with it, they disappeared along with it's ranking, although the ranking came back later.

At the time of the merge, my own friendly name was Ahnfelt rather than my full name as it is now (I don't know if this semi-clash of names has any influence, it's just a detail).

BTW, my username is also Ahnfelt. I don't know if it matters, but it's just another detail.
