Infractions
The infraction system is a form to warn and/or punish users if they have done something wrong. It is mainly a simple warning, so don't take it too peronally. The real consequences lie in the number of infractions, it is therefore needed to keep them as minimal as possible. If you hit 10 infraction points, you will be banned (temporarily). Please note that only the moderating team can use this system.
Received infractions can be viewed in your User CP. Only you and forum moderators will be able to see your infractions.
Yellow infractions are just warnings. Therefore only red infractions count toward being banned.
Private infractions mean that the post you were infracted for has been deleted.
Reputation
Reputation are the little green blocks, the more blocks, the better your reputation is. By default (registration) you start with 10 reputation points.
You need a certain amount of post (25) to use the reputation system. This is to ensure people use it for normal manners.
Red reputation blocks indicate you have less than 0 reputation points.
However, there are also gray reputations. These don't affect you, it merely means someone with less than 25 posts has given you a reputation point. Green is good, red is bad and gray is somewhere in between. Mostly you get gray reputation from someone who doesn't have enough posts (>25).
It is a nice way to thank someone or to appreciate a post by using the rep system.
