I see you guys are saying Dohn changed Jaylan Hornsby ratings. Is there a way to see when his ratings changed and from what to what?

Looks like that isn't true. See what you're looking for re: changes to his ranking in the 12/8 visitor thread.

I haven’t used 24/7 in a couple seasons but when I did I’m pretty sure you were able to see ratings updates over the course from the players first rating to most recent. I don’t know exactly where anymore because like I said it’s been a while, but if you play around in there I’m sure you’ll find it.

I mentioned how to do it in the visits thread. It’s not intuitive and you have to make a couple of clicks to find it.

There’s like this little clock looking button near the composite rating you have to click and that takes you to another page where you can toggle to just the 247 site rating. The site defaults to the composite which makes it really confusing.

Check the Hornsby thread. It was addressed over there. His rating hasn't changed.
