Q: How do I gain or lose rep?
A: You get rep by helping out the community in different ways, like contributing, or helping out a member. How to gain rep is supposed to be vague though, but you should get a PM when you get a rep point explaining how.
As for losing rep, a very simple way to do that is by breaking a rule. Major rules will get you on the first time, while minor offenses like excessive spam will allow a warning first.
You wil also lose rep for bugging the staff to get rep.
