Darius forced the website to divide by zero which returned an infinite value. Since mysql only caps at 9223372036854775807, that value was displayed as the total points.
tl;dr Darius divided by zero and blew up the internet.
Yeah... i think the maximum number PHP can handle is 9223372036854775810 (or there abbots) unless you use bigint or something (i cant remember lol). If the post has a minus number of points, this, for some reason displayed as maximum number - points or something similar.
