Reputation

i noticed that theres a topic about n points and i was thinking, "Does that mean my reputation?"

so i post this to ask you what is my reputation and how can i raise it? (im at 0 right now)

you get reputation if people like your comment enough to press on the right the + or - , they adjust your rep. it has nothing to do with npoints . so just as an example I pressed + so now your reputation is 1. personally im not that bothered what people think of me, I just like to map and play. people can make whatever maps they want by whatever name. people may get annoyed with them, and they do, but you cant stop people from choosing what names they want or from posting bad maps. ignore them, just carry on. life has bad and good points, you just carry on and live on it doesn't make any difference.   

thx dude i didnt know that
