On the left there's a bar(at least, there is on the WoW skin). There's something on there called the "Site FAQ". Read the whole thing.
That said, here's the part relevant to your question.

Q: I see posters rated as Scholar, Sage and Guru. What's up with that and how do I get a
title?
A: That is part of the Karma system. Your Karma rating is determined by averaging every rating your posts have received from the users of the site. The rating comes from posts made under your registered name on any of the rated forums for any game covered by allakhazam.com, but does not include posts on user journals. You must have at least 15 posts before you receive a Karma rating. Then any future post you make will start out at your Karma level. Anonymous posts start at a rating of 2. Titles are assigned to your posts according to the following scale:
Karma below 3 = user. Posts are in orange.
Karma between 3.01 and 3.65 = scholar. Posts are in light blue.
Karma between 3.66 and 4.34 = sage. Posts are in green.
Karma between 4.35 and 5 = guru. Posts are in red.
Administrators posts are in maroon.
Q: What are the karma ratings?
A: Excellent = 5.0
Good = 4.0
Decent = 3.0
Default = 2.0
Awful = 1.0
The colors may not be relevant to you if you use a different style sheet. Also, Admins on the WoW skin are in purple, not maroon.
