How to go about increasing user rating/points to upload simfiles?

I've been making Simfiles for about 9 years now. Recently, I've gained the desire to finally upload some to this site. I found out that I need "50 User Rating Points" in order to upload/create my own category. I have a few specific questions about user rating points.

1. What are all the ways of gaining points?

2. What are the easiest/fastest ways to earn them?

3. Do different actions/ways have different amounts earned?

4. Is there a daily system limit to the amount earned per day or per different action taken?

If anyone has any information about this it would be much appreciated. Any extra information on points I didn't POINT out already would be awesome as well...heh puns.
Thank you.

A mod might need to change the rules as User Points were dropped a while ago, basically giving everyone the same status (outside of Donors) due to drama ensuing because of the User Rating system.

Unsure what one must do now in order to get a simfile category other than probably just asking a moderator for one and seeing what they have to say afaik.

This is the simfile category request thread. All you have to do is write a title you want for your pack, and Alan should create it for you.
