RE: I'm stuck my activity score in 3 days ago.
It's updated normally. Sometimes the activity score stops increasing for a while when you reach higher levels. It also has a logarithmic scale, which means the higher you get, the more difficult it will be to increase the score. If you continue rating normally, it should start increasing again soon.

RE: I'm stuck my activity score in 3 days ago.
Because my activity score is not update normally and ratings still fine. If activity score is still froze in 3 days, and then 4 days still froze again then I cleaned up my host file, and something for now... it still froze again and again and again! Maybe it has only big problem for troubleshooting in my activity score.

If activity score is still froze in 3 days, and then 4 days still froze againAs I explained, the activity score may stop increasing for several days unless you rate a lot more sites. It's perfectly normal and the score is still updated normally. Patience.

stuck activity score for 14 days despite 20,000 posts & reviews
With due respect, Sami, I don't think that this is a normal situation.
I know, "Sometimes the activity score stops increasing for a while when you reach higher levels. "
And yes, I know, "patience".
But having made 20,000 ratings and posts over the last 14 days, and seeing no change to the activity score I suggest that there is something broken there!DATE - REVIEWER & (LEVEL) - ACTIVITY - K RATINGS / K POSTS

But having made 20,000 ratings and posts over the last 14 days, and seeing no change to the activity score I suggest that there is something broken there!The scores are being updated normally, this is just how they were designed to work.
In fact, the activity score was meant to fluctuate originally, but we later decided that having the score decrease in value wouldn't be such a good idea. When you rate more sites and your activity score doesn't change the following day, it means that the actual score computed on that day was lower than the all-time high you are seeing.
Of course, we never anticipated anyone to reach a score of >60k. The amount of effort required to increase the score at that level combined with the internal fluctuation means the score may not change for a long time. You actually start seeing these pauses at around ~10k and the higher you get, the longer they become.
Your activity score last changed on the 5th and was very close to increasing on the 10th. However, it started decreasing the next day until the 17th, when it started slowly increasing again. The current value is still below 62363, which is why it hasn't changed in two weeks.
We have been considering simply limiting the score to 10k, because at that level, we feel it has served its purpose of motivating the less active users to rate the sites they know. Do you have any thoughts on this?

"...simply limiting the score to 10k...Do you have any thoughts on this?"My thought is that when my ratings score has reached a tad over 10k then I will be able to justifiably feel that I have done my bit for Internet safety. However, it would be a good idea to limit the activity score to 10k, and perhaps use a 10k+ for those exceeding an activity level of 11k just to distinguish between those who just wanted to reach Platinum and those who carry on rating.

RE: I'm stuck my activity score in 3 days ago.
Sami, I'm stuck with the same activity score as 12 days ago, and I have rated and commented on a considerable amount of sites since.
:-) Smile!

RE: stuck activity score for 14 days etc
We have been considering simply limiting the score to 10k, because at that level, we feel it has served its purpose of motivating the less active users to rate the sites they know. Do you have any thoughts on this?
Since you asked... Yes, I do have thoughts on this! Your idea seems quite sensible.Scores are important. I love Stack Overflow, whenever I see my score increase, (although it can go down too- for the Stack Exchange sites that is appropriate). I think your decision, Sami, NOT to do that for WOT, as described, was good. For WOT, it isn't constructive for scores to fluctuate up and down.
Why is a 10K maximum sensible? There will be increasing numbers of users who exceed 10,000 or even 60,000 as an activity score. At this point in time, it is reasonable to assume that WOT will continue to exist as a going concern, business and accounting-wise. In the future, it could be burdensome (both tracking AND explaining) the logic behind the scoring methodology for increasing numbers of WOT members who achieve very high scores.
