    It seems a downvote on a post affects your reputation negatively, while an upvote does not. Boosting a post and/or comment increases your reputation score instead. The scheme is weird. I posted a video a couple days ago that had over a dozen upvotes but 2 downvotes. My reputation score was -2.

    I realize they’re internet points, but I went ahead and boosted all my comments since kbin doesn’t do it automatically yet. My reputation score was in the teens after that. It’s a work in progress system, and already known. Apparently a fix is under way.

      That explains why so many people have negative reputation on their profile for no apparent reason. It definitely needs to be changed because this current system just disproportionately favors negative rep

      for the most part people will take up arrow as upvote and down arrow as downvote, and will never really look past that.
