    You cannot. Others can however.

    The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.

    Of course you can. You can earn hundreds of points a day simply by clicking on things around here. Posting stuff is the harder way to get some points. :)

      Asking the question "How can I increase my rep" certainly does not seem to be working. :rolleyes:

                      Generally these kinds of transformations involve a bet, blackmail, or the discovery of royal bloodlines. See the following: Can't Buy Me Love[^] She's All That[^] Drive Me Crazy[^] King Ralph[^] The Princess Diaries[^] For further help, I'd suggest Google.[^]

Even if you're not a tool, you may attract the attention of those that are tools who for some reason take great pleasure in down-voiting anything you submit, be it article, question, answer, or forum message. Generally, you can overcome the tools by being a positive force on the site. Post decent articles/tips/blogs, answer questions (correctly) in the programming forums, and try not to piss anyone off in the lounge. You can be funny without being a complete tool in the process. EDIT =========== As you can see, one of the fore-mentioned tools (with a very low reputation) voted this post a 1, but nobody will ever know why. What's more, it doesn't matter because most people that read this are going to know that I'm trying to provide you with what could be considered as "sage advice", while the miniscule minority represented by the collective tools will misconstrue this post as being an insult directed at their almost complete lack of cerebral electrical activity.
