@fenbox FYI

[surapuramakhil]

observed with sqlite db

[fenbox]

If the account is inactive, then their reputation is 0.

[surapuramakhil]

can you explain flow of how an user goes to inactive?

This is what happened. User Signed Up. User tried explore other sections without finishing activation. (user became inactive). User then done activation via activation mail (Now still user reputation is zero, that a problem, user can't do anything on app. they can't post question, then can't answer, they can't comment)

I have literally went and done db updated to reset reputation to 1.

What's your Answer version?

After the mail is activated, the reputation should go from 0 to 1, and the case where it's still 0 may be something we need to reproduce.

@surapuramakhil I used the same version for testing. The reputation is correct after email activation. In that case, can you provide more information?

[surapuramakhil]

@LinkinStars can you try messing (hacking) with account before activation. something like before activating go to other sections of page something like like add question (doing stuff which inactive user can't do) and do activation

[surapuramakhil]

PS note: I have tired doing repro in answer meta, I wasn't able to do that repro again. this time I got reputation as 1.

I guess its fine as long as number of cases is under reasonable

Normally, the user should not be able to do anything before activation. Sure, thanks for the feedback and I'll continue to verify other possibilities.
