My reputation score went from 27 to -1! I'm still fairly new here, trying to post quality stuff and make comments that have substance, yet someone felt the need to hack my account?!

Upvoted you to help your post get out of the hidden zone.
That will help a bit with your reputation too.
Did you change your access?
Make sure when you connect to steemit to connect to the right URL ... never click on any link to be redirected here, and double check the URL ... millions of people make that mistake all the time.
I am really sorry to see what happened to you. It is clear that you are a genuine poster and someone somehow started posting on your behalf.
It is impossible to know who did this, or what their motive was. The question is how did they get your posting password? Did you use a public computer? Has your compter been hacked or is it running a key-logger? Did you lose a phone or iPad? Did you enter your posting key into an app that claimed to be part of steemit?
I see that in one of the recent replies you have been invited into a discord chat to resolve the issue. But you must first remove all the offending comments. Hurry-up. Some of them are already 6 days old. Once they are 7 days old it is too late to edit.
Good luck! I hope you get your reputation back.
There is a way to recover your account. I have been hacked too. I got my account recovered and my reputation score back up.
You need to edit all the phishing comments that have been posted from your account. Replace the text by ‘comment deleted’. Then contact Steemcleaners at Discord to remove the flags.
Reply to this comment and I will guide you through
Have you contacted Steemcleaners about removing their flags?
I’ve written a detailed guide on my blog yesterday. Since you’ve already edited the comments, you can skip the first part and just head over to the Steemcleaners Discord channel, and tell them what happened, and that you’ve edited all comments. It can take a couple of hours before they reply, but they will be able to take back (most of) the flags, so your rep score will go back up again...
