Well You Must Check FAQ Section or Make a Manual Research on Why Such Things Are Commonly Used on Boards.

As Said by glengainer - It's Only a Reputation Power. Some one Increases Your Reputations If He/She Likes Your Contribution/Share. Also Remember, You Cannot Forcefully Ask Someone To Increase Your Rep Power.

it helps to give people an idea of how reliable users are on the forum. someone with a good rep is most likely someone you can trust, while someone who has a lower rep you should be careful dealing with.
