I doubt your question will be answered considering that the person you are asking has not been here in a year and a half, this is an old thread and usually we recommend members to created new threads rather than bump old ones.
To answer your question rep point are can be obtained by receiving thanks or using the rep button below each post, each thank equal 1 point, rep points depends on one's Rep Power which is determined by their own reputation level.
