I’m still learning the ropes here. As such, I’m not entirely sure what reputation implies, but some one early on indicated to me that it may be a calculation which factors in the votes you’ve received.
I think it was someone complaining about downvotes dropping their reputation.
Anyway, anyone here who knows me knows I’m here for the flutes, and for the awesome friends; that crypto gains and reputation scores are always going to be secondary to fair and honest self-expression…after all, what good is it to make friends on false pretenses? The friends I make, they are getting to know me, in all my weirdness, and that means the most to me.
Here is a picture I found of friends doing normal friend stuff:

With a all that said, I want to say, of course I wouldn’t be making periodic Hive updates if these other aspects meant nothing to me. I really love watching my account grow, I love finding new people to follow, and I love seeing new people find me and fall in love with the soulful voices of the flutes.
Today’s update? Of course my reputation has incremented! I noticed it on Friday, on my work computer over my lunch break - it had gone up to 62! …but I came back, closed and reopened the app, and alas, still 61. So I thought, it’s just a delay. Then, I updated the website on the PC, and it went back to 61 - so I decided it was either a glitch or I was catching a few downvotes and teetering on the edge.
Then, Saturday morning it was there - a glorious two on the tail end of my six! So, I have no idea how it happened or what it means, but this weekend my friends, I climbed up one more rung of the reputation ladder!
As I contemplated the possible logic, I remembered that recently I had received a mention for the achievement of distributing 15,000 upvotes.
So maybe this incremented reputation score meant I had crossed over that next line at 20,000…but then, why not Hive Buzz notification?
At this point, I know enough to know that there does exist a blockchain explorer, and I probably could glean some more details if I took the time to learn how to use this tool, but without doing so, these advancements continue to remain a mystery.
…and to be honest, I am at peace with that. It’s cool to see that it grows over time. Seeing how long I stayed at 61, it makes me admire the hard work that’s gone into all the accounts with 65 or even 70+ reputation scores. For me, I suppose it will just keep growing because I enjoy being here so much!
Thanks for checking out some more of my work! As always, I hope you enjoyed witnessing as much as I enjoyed creating!
