Because currently, it seems like the only thing it’s recording are downvotes. Meanwhile upvotes are completely ignored, leading to pretty much every profile I see having a negative reputation.
Also, I have a very fragile ego and my -6 reputation hurts a bit.
Also, you can microblog with your kbin account, so boosting with it actually does something.
So, “boosting” a microblog/post (tweet) will “repost” it into your timeline (so your followers see it)? But what about for threads/comments? Is there any functionality at all for boosting it except to give the user reputation?
As far as I understand it, if you boost a comment, it will also appear in your timeline.
