Nope, the decay is 10% of your TOTAL Rank Points, not 10% of your current Rank .
Rank 4 is 10 000 RP. Rank 5 is 15 000 RP.
If you're 25% into Rank 4, this means you have 11 250 RP. Thus, your decay will be 11 250 x 10% = 1 125 RP.
If you are anywhere below +/- 22% of your Rank 4, the Decay alone will get you back to rank 3.
22,22% --> +/- 11 100 RP --> 1 110 Decay --> 9 990 RP after Decay --> Rank 3 @ +/- 99%
Again, I'm not telling the OP didn't have an issue with his rank, I'm just pointing out wrong understanding of the Honor System in my opinion .
Decay is actually 20% of your total RP unless edited on this server. Otherwise a very correct post about how it works
Taken from the wiki:
"Note though, that there is a rank promotion limit, which is due to the fact that you simply cannot earn more than a certain amount total rank each week, plus your total rank decays by 20% each week"
