    @mykl reputation is a combination of upvotes and downvotes (theoretically). However there’s a visual bug because there was a switch of how boosts and upvotes worked right before people joined. so it’s showing boosts minus downvotes. which isn’t exactly correct.

    Down to -3 now. It looks like it’s a tally of downvotes on any posts and comments counted on their own. That seems to be a strange choice, and implies that the first rule of kbin must be never to argue with conspiracy theorists if you want to maintain your social credit rating.
