How to gain reputation points

You can earn reputation by first participating and contributing positively to the community on Microsoft Q&A. Then, as others recognize your contribution (say by somebody accepting your answer as correct), you’ll receive reputation points.

Below is a table that shows the activities we track in the recognition system and the points associated to those activities. There are many activities that award zero (0) points - those are listed to help you understand what we deem as quality contributions. Also note that not all activities in this list will appear in your profile activity feed; for instance negative actions are not listed publicly.
