What’s Boosting?
Boosting lets you use your reputation to give posts more upvotes—it’s like a megaphone for great content!
- Costs 3 reputation point per 1 upvote you add.
- The original poster doesn’t get extra reputation from boosts—it’s just for visibility.
- You can boost any post, even your own, as long as you have the reputation points!
