My 30-day karma is higher than my overall karma, and I can't find anything in my post/comment history that's at negative points. Bug, or does the 30-day feature count all upvotes instead of net karma?

Total Karma cares where a post was when it was voted on. 30 days Karma cares where a post is now. Do you have a MAIN post that was in DISCUSSION when it received some of its upvotes?

Yes, I do. That must be it; thanks!

It doesn't just count upvotes, as roland currently has negative Karma delta. You were probably downvoted more than 30 days ago (on comments that were since upvoted to positive total), and these downvotes are not counted in the 30-days sum, but count in the total. But this does look suspicious.

Right, but I haven't gained all my upvotes in the last 30 days, either. (The current scores would seem to imply that my net was -10 for the time before this month; I don't think that could possibly be accurate)

Right.
