Reputation?

I believe AK has recently restructured the rep point system, due to some users abusing the previous system.

It's based on posts as well as positive rep points. You can see an icon of a scale bellow each user name in each post. By clicking on that you can leave positive or negative reps for a user. Kind of like an "itrader" you see on other forums.

Slightly OT: One thing I don't like about the Rep system is when people start asking for rep points. If people find your thread/post valuable then yeah give the poster a rep point. But don't ask people for rep points. IMO that's pretty lame.

This is exactly why the system has been redone. People are entitled to leave feedback, but please don't abuse the system.

There's your answer to #3. You can get positive rep points for starting informative or useful threads or if you make a post/reply that people agree with. How many points you receive depend on who gave you rep points and their rep power. For your other questions i'll ask AK.

3. What is your reputation power based on other than post count?

1. Ans: I am keeping that number a secret. It'll be more interesting if I keep it a secret instead of just telling you. Let me tell you, it's not much. The more good constructive replies you post, I'm sure the more rep points you'll receive.

2. Ans: The dull smaller green block is the rep power block. The brighter, bigger and round green block in your status (online/offline)

3. Ans: Rep points factors:

For every X number of days you're a forum member.
For every X number of posts you have and
For every x number of rep points you receive from other members.
