A minimum of 1 post.
HOW DO I GIVE REPUTATION?
Next to each member's post, you can find a little scale icon. Click on that and a new window will open up. Here you can decide to approve their post (positive/green), or disapprove their post (negative/red), as well as leave a comment and your username for them to read. Then click Add to Reputation to complete the process.
HOW DO I SEE WHAT MY REPUTATION IS?
There are three ways:
The amount light bars next to your posts (see below for details).
The message you see displayed when you place your mouse over the light bars (see below for details).
Clicking UserCP, scrolling down to the Latest Reputation Received box, and looking at the top right corner. A number is given signifying how many points you've earned.
WHAT ARE THESE DIFFERENT BARS MEAN??
Each bar signifies that that member has reached a certain "checkpoint" in rep points. NOTE: Rep bars don't signify rep power (see below for details.)

HOW DO I SEE HOW MY REPS WERE GIVEN??
By clicking UserCP, and scrolling down to the Latest Reputation Received box. There you can see which thread as well as a link to the post you got you're reputation from, the time you received it, the type of reputation or color (see below for details), and a comment if one was left there. You can only view the last 10 reps you were given.
HOW DO I KNOW WHO GAVE ME REP?HOW DO I SEE HOW MY REPS WERE GIVEN??
Unless you're an admin, or super-moderator, or one of the above checks your profile for you, there is no way you can be 100% sure who gave them to you. The only other way to know is if they tell you that they are/have, or by what they say in their comments

WHAT DO EACH OF THESE COLORS IN THE REP RECEIVED BOX MEAN?
Negative Rep: You lose points.
Null Rep: Member who repped you doesn't meet the requirements to give rep away. You're points stay the same.
Positive Rep: You gain points.
Hope that helped....That's the way it is at the other forums I'm at. ^___^
