I was really suprised when i log-in this evening. I was scrolling discussion when i noticed my blue star become a yellow star. Oh what happen?..i also noticed not only me but i checked my friends star too. All blue stars become yellow. I dont understand. Is there a glitch now here in mylot. What we did wrong to deserve this star. I hope mylot will fix this problem. As i dont know what i did wrong? What about you my friends and mylottians. Did you noticed your blue stars become yellow? what did you feel? What possibly happening now? Me, I am really dissapointed :(

You will notice that there are lots of discussions about this same topic today. No one that I know of has an explanation. I am not taking it personally, because I know I did not do anything wrong. I believe it is some kind of glitch. Continue to give your friends + marks as they deserve them, and see what happens. I believe it is a myLot glitch. They happen from time to time. Look around, check out the other discussions. We need to still talk about and discuss other things, just like normal. We do not need to run around focusing just on this little thing.

Thanks for dropping by GardenGerty, i have made this discussion before i have read the others who have already made the same topic. Now im much ok compared few minutes ago when i found out the changes but now i think im convinced maybe its just somekind of a glitch.

Yeah mine went down from 9 to 8. I'm really ok with it, not a big deal to me since it wasn't a big fall. But if it went down to 6 or less I'd probably be sad too. I'm sorry that you're dissapointed, but there must be some explanation behind this...I wonder.

I noticed this too!!! I had a blue star for the longest time. And mine is yellow today, too. AND all my friends ratings are dropping. I don't know what is going on, but I know 2 things:
The rating system is to rate negative answers - negative meaning - they didn't answer the question at all, they used one word answers, or they posted something inappropriate.
The negative rating is NOT to rate posts because you don't agree with them (we all have our own opinions here)
And secondly, I always post relevant, well thought out answers. If you don't agree with what I am saying, THAT'S NOT what a negative rating is for! This has gotten so much worse in the last few weeks!!

But do you think someone has given you negative rating? me, maybe but i dont feel like it is with the negative because if someone had rate me negative rating then why such a big drop but come to think of it, ITs not me and its not you only, am i right? i think it happens to everybody who had blue and red stars. Maybe there is really a problem with the system.Sooner or later maybe they will fix the problem. Hoping hehehe

I think you just overlooked your star. I can see you still have blue star beside your username.

I think what had happened here in mylot since yesterday was a computer glitch. I had noticed my fast rating fall from 9 to 8, then when i woke up it suddenly become 5. After few hours, it returns back to 9. It might be a computer glitch i think.
