How does reputation work on KBin? (kbin.social)

I'm a little confused about how the upvote/downvote system works as related to your reputation on KBin. Can someone explain?

So wait then it's way easier to get down votes than upvotes and get a bad reputation?

Yes, but you can boost your own comments to counteract the downvotes. The whole system is sketchy at best and shouldn't be relied on to determine anything about a user.

That's just silly.

You shouldn't be able to give yourself points.

Or it should default to always self boosting (similar to reddit)
