Quick Question about Reputation

---

Hello!
I was going through my account and noticed a portion labeled "Reputation". I was just wondering how that section works.
Thanks!

I looked it up and it said... "Currently, the user gains reputation when their post is favourited."

Although in the forum software many years ago, we had a feature where people could rate you with stars or something like that... The reputation you see on some peoples profiles might have something to do with that.
