Meta - Double points?

Meta - Double points?

Lately (it looks like since the last MGoPoints rule change), I've been getting double points every time I receive an upvote or downvote. For example, if someone votes me +1, my account lists 2 points for receiving a +1 vote and 2 points for someone voting on my content for a total of 4 points. Is anyone else seeing this?

EDIT: post not intended to open the "meaning of points" argument, just seeing if the blog was working the way Brian wanted it to, since there were so many pixels spilled trying to get it right recently.

Actually,

the system creating more points is causing MGoInflation. Points are now easier to come by, so yours are worth less.

I got this too

I guess I just figured that they both weren't counting and that I was actually just getting the correct amount of points, but maybe they are double counting?
