Star rating drops?

Actually problem is same with me As their is no rule regarding the rate increase or decrease! As me too was having 7 th rank or even 8th rank but suddenly it came to 2nd rank Then i have heard that if some one will rate you "+" situated below the post your rate will increae! Then i have requested many freinds of mine to rate but no changes! till now! So i have just left thinking about the rank!

I was a 9, until I decided not to add a real jerk to my friend's list.Then this started happeneing once they and their buddies or their other mylot accounts got busy and started negatively rating everything I've ever done.So, if you've made anyone mad, they could be yanking your chain.

Hello carol, I also used to have 10 but now I only got nine. I believe that most of the reasons why our ratings drop is because a post that we made (started/replied) might have been deleted, which also affects the amount of post we make by dropping. I sugggest that you follow the guidelines and posts accordingly to what it says, avoid posting low QUALITY discussions because they will not help you in any way as it may cause you another deletion. Here are some links about this matter, I hope you take time to read and understand them: http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/457762.aspx

I think it happens when people rate your discussions negatively, carolscash. It happened to me before and my star dropped back to a 9. I just didn't worry about is because most everyone says that they are not that important. I don't think people should use the rating system in this way, but people will do what they will.

yes noticed this as well . It depends on how ppl rate your comments. You may have said somethign that offended someone? Look at my rating it's pretty bad but i knowI made a couple posts that I just was real with and I may have offended someone. SO be it. I don't care what ppl think honestly. Giving someone a negative rating when they clearly don't deserve one is wrong.
