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

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?

Yes that did increase my rep, Thank you, did the same for you! But what I don't understand is why are negative accounted for but not positive, the negative downvotes can effect your rep but not the positive ones seems like an oversite. Either negatives need to not do anything (which I disagree with) or both have to effect your rep, not just one.
