While that is a good tip Ssh, I'm seeing all lower caps here. Maybe someone changed it. Ah well, I'll just attribute this to my senility. Good tip to Skittlez though Ssh. Thanks for mentioning it.

if you put your cursew at your star you will see your reputation. it is how mylot members rates you with your discussion and coments. if they rate you + then you will have a high rating. 10 is the highest.

The star beside your username represents your ratings here, as these depends on how other users rate your posts. The higher star you have, the most credible your posts are. You also need to put your posts in QUALITY, as you start a discussion or simply by responding to other member's post. Stars range from 1 to 10, with 1 the lowest and 10 as the highest.

Yes you do need to put in quality to responses, its helpful. But its not a guarantee your star rating will rise. Raijin has it all down though, good info and advice.

Its the rating other members give you by hitting the + or - button. Its SUPPOSED to mean your quality of posting. But if you look at a lot of my posts, discussions and best responses, you'll soon see different. And its not just me, its other members too. Just try your best, the star gets meaningless as you stay on here longer Skittlez.
