If you receive some bad ratings and your post gets hidden for obvious reasons, you just have to edit that post (even if you dont change anything of your original posting but a dot) the rating counter resets and shows ZERO again.
that is kinda really stupid
The follow up bug to this, you cant rate the changed posting again even the counter resets.
that way the rating system doesnt make sense at all

I don't think there's a bug. That first post currently has a rating of -1 because it has received three "no" and two "yes", which would equal -1, just like it says. And you can't rate it again because you already rated it once.

I think a post auto-hides when it reaches -2. It's set a bit low but we had very few cases where a post didn't deserve an auto-hide. Like in this case, some don't like it and some don't, so if will just receive some +1's to get back to visible. If it receives too many -1's then it will only be visible for admin/moderator though.
