What is FAVORITE_SCREEN? Is that the old terminology for what is now known as Bookmarks? — charlietfl 10 hours ago

Can someone do a better job explaining than me? I get why the fella is confused and not doing a good job unconfusing

I have the impression a bot gave me upvote on 3 separate questions instantly or a very short time. I find it suspicious. I want to let you know and if possible, check this. I got my points losse 180 a few months ago because of similar inappropriate upvote. Can you please look at my SO Profile?

You could raise a moderator flag on one of those posts with an explanation...

I got an up-vote on all these 3 posts simultaneously:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61035374/bash-command-to-check-available-drive-space-was-to-check-value-of-a-decimal-nu/61035693#61035693
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62917812/split-string-in-a-loop/62920072#62920072
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62606522/bash-3-2s-behavior-of-logical-or-operator-in-arithmetic-expressions/62608268#62608268

I suspect someone is doing something bad with a bot, casting up-votes on random accounts (possibly hiding up-votes on less random accounts).

@LéaGris It was 350 lost, those might not be reversed, this is the incorrect place and we are the wrong people to ask. Flagging one of the posts with a custom mode message will likely get the same answer, moderators can not see who voted. You need to use the "Contact" link in the footer of any of the site's webpages.
