Your question did state you assumed there to be a bug in the way the rep is calculated.

That is not the case. But it is that sentence that made me write my answer.

> Where's the bug? I presume the moderator page is incorrectly calculating the day's rep. I have confirmed that other mods on the site also see 142 as the rep...

I can see how that can be interpreted all sorts of ways

You should also understand that the back story is that only the moderators see things this way.... and when I tried to question the devs, they said to write up the bug.....

You may have a compelling argument here but that needs to be directed at Nick in the context of that FR, not in your bug report.

user removed events are shown irrespective of the CB I think; as that is not about removed posts.
