I was 850 before I took on debt.

Debt makes your credit score go up.

CK has it around 720ish but Experian has it at 760 so somewhere in that range.

I've been hovering around 840 for a few years now.

No late payments since 2006 (and that one was BS), I've kept open auto loans the entire time (what can I say, I like driving newer), home loan since 2016, and about $1k revolving debt on $20k of credit.

Debt makes your credit score go up.

Not if you have almost as much debt as credit extended to you. Example: If you have 3 credit cards, and all three are almost at their limit and you have no other available credit, that doesn't look good. On the other hand, if only one of those cards is at its limit and the other two have almost nothing on them, that won't look bad.

I got a 0% card for 15 months that I mostly maxed to take advantage of no interest. My credit score jumped 60 points when I paid it off (right before the intro period expired). Free loan but my credit score tanked lol

Eh, doesn't matter too much if you didn't plan on using your score anytime soon while you were doing that. Now you know if you want to do that again, to have a few cards, then it won't look bad (or as bad) because the others will have no debt on them

Oh yeah it was a conscious decision. I knew my credit would take a hit but we didnt need it for anything since we already had the mortgage and car. But it was really funny to see it jump from 734 to 794 in the span of 2 weeks. And I did have a few other cards with little balance on them. I think it was because of how much I had on the card though.

That is not really the case. I owe far more on my house than all of my credit cards combined 5x and my credit is doing good.

Credit score is a measure of how likely you are to pay back your debt, not whether you have it at all. Constantly making only the minimum payment on your credit cards could be viewed as bad but maxing them out isn't inherently so. So long as you aren't being declined when you try to use them.

If you have no debt then lenders / creditors have no idea if you're going to pay anything back.

I don't get why people make credit score topics.

Your house isnt revolving credit. Thats the difference.

Credit cards are subject to utilization, so if they are all maxed out, it does look bad. As opposed to an installment loan that just has a large balance but actively being paid down.
