Why does the Chat show so much reputation?

Question

enter image description here

I wish that I had 5.9k rep, but I dont, not even combined... (and the badge count only has my superuser badges, not even meta).

What does the 5.9k mean?

You have to count the 7 sites where you have less than 200 rep, it's not shown in some other summaries. Add up these numbers -- 5902 by my count.

Got it. So why are the badges not summed also? – soandos Aug 17 '11 at 4:04

@soandos Good question. Guess they just figured it would be better to show only the parents' badges ... – Matthew Read Aug 17 '11 at 4:06

Seems a tad inconsistent... – soandos Aug 17 '11 at 4:06
