what are reputation points?

[cakarl60 0]

While browsing the site a message on my page stated, You have -3 reputation points. What does that mean??

Am I being drummed out of the corps?

Reputation points are like bragging rights he with the most points win. As said earlier reputation points also allow you to help keep the questions clean by giving you access to do admin tasks. The more you have the more you can do.
