I have only commented so far with only positive reception, all my comments are in the positives and I only have 5 downvote all I am pretty sure coming from the same person on the same thread, yet I have -5 rep, why?

if I add my positive upvotes, likes, whatever and subtract my 5 downvotes I would have 97-5 which is 92, why do only downvotes or negative interaction count but not positive?

    That seems very one sided, and like it’s easy to get fake rep by just posting to a boost mag and having everyone boost you. Most people besides content creators seems like they well end up in the red, I mean are many people boosting comments? probably not, more boost are going to go to content creator which rewarding content creators is good, but in theory if they are making good content that should be rewarded with interaction and new views, not by making it so it’s hard for people that are more commenters (which you also need for a functioning website) to be seen as positive.

    also guess that means for now I am gonna focus on boosting content I like.
