ok, that makes sense, but it dropped right as i posted a response so i think they just drop your rating if you don't reach the minimum number of words for new posts. That is a rip-off, but i guess i should start giving long explanations.

You don't have to quit. I think as long as you post responses that are more than five sentences, they won't drop your rating. It could also be a bug in the system and only happens randomly. I am going to post longer comments from now on to make sure its not a bug.

It already happen to me once, but I only losed one point. One another ocasion, I posted, and nothing happen on my rate, it still then (not +, but not -). I guess there a minimum of characters and, if we don't reach that minimum, the rate still the same. On other ocasion, if the post is a no qualitive post, so, we lose posts.
