"You need 2 reputation to up vote"
-
I am a new member to this forum. I have been moving about and reading forum topics I am interested in for a few months now. At different times I have tried to up vote someone’s comment to show my agreement and support to what they have written and submitted.
But trying to up vote always opens a window with red text that states; “You need 2 reputation to up vote”.
What does this mean? and
How does a person get a “reputation”?And finally,
Is there a section of the forum where expected rules, regulations and requirements are written, that a new user can refer to?
Thanks.

@gricknw Welcome!
Sorry, I do not know if those rules are there. Part of the issue with a reputation to vote is to prevent bots in the forum and to ensure that a forum member is planning on communicating and not just downvoting posts (we have had this happen). Posting and commenting will up your reputation quickly.
