Treat newbies like intelligent human beings (which, in most cases, they are) and answer their questions politely and thoroughly. Don't post useless messages that don't say anything productive. Post insightful comments if you can think of any. Avoid posting angry or insulting messages. Finally, one really good way to make a name for yourself seems to be to post helpful, polite, and insightful messages in thread where everyone else is being annoying, as sometimes happens in thread about EV multiplayer, EV3D, EV4, and, strangely, karma.
Of course, not all karma happens for easily understood reasons. There will always be moderators who give it for reasons known only to themselves. What ever else you do, though, never ask a moderator to give (or sell) you karma.

Sometimes you get karma when you least expect it, and other times you don't get it even if you think you obviously deserve it. It's not really important unless it's at -10, because at that point you are banned from posting on the boards.
