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.

Well i’m screwed then… Cause i’m the worst kind of ex redditor. After like 10 years on that site I had maybe 2k post karma… 150k comment karma lol.
A modification of this is used when giving a deposition. You want to answer the question without giving any more information than necessary. If they ask about time you say it was after 9 in the morning. You don’t say it was 9:15 because you’d just gotten your coffee and had checked your watch.
I learned this during audits – Always try to say the Minimum Correct Thing. Be honest, be precise with your language, and only answer questions that are asked.
