Well actually, I wasn't going to answer this discussion of your's but I haven't really seen any valuable response about this topic so I would just like to share this with you and the rest so you won't be misinformed. Stars and rating goes down depending on your activity and participation, we earn (money/friends/ratings) if we post Qualitatively. Usually, ratings go down because of many reasons. Either a discussion you started or participated in has been deleted, due to violating the guidelines. So I suggest you read them, to avoid such misinformations and get the wrong impression about this site. Try checking their FAQ's as well, there you'll find informative answers regarding this topic of your's. But then again, try checking this link first because this is the REAL and ONLY answer to your question on why your ratings went down.. http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/436025.aspx

Most probably, YES.. So who ever told that it's because others rate you negative is wrong, there are reasons why such things happen here for us and why ratings drop or stars go down.

Don't let it bother you. People here have mentioned it happens when your ratings go down. Depending on a comment or disussion you wrote, people can either give you a positive or negative rating. However I don't see a star by your name anymore.

Well I would not let it bother me too much. I hear this happening to alot of people here on Mylot.Seems that maybe someone might not like the way to responded to their discussion or something, maybe they gave you a negative rating.I am sure that in no time your ratings will be right back up where they used to be.I do not let my star ratibg bother me very much, because I hear this sort of thing happen here all the time.

hello,' sorry to hear that your star is down, i guess someone didnt agree with you and give you a negative rating, someone told me such thing can cause that. i honestly dont know how that works and i cannot understand such thing YET. anyway, i hope you will go back to your normal number again, just keep posting and having fun. takecare!

same here ratings do tend to flucuate I am now nine and was ten then nine then ten and back to a nine. someone hasa very itch minus finger and uses it indiscrimanatley. this breaks mylot rules as they saydo not use minus unless the person is flaming or calling bad names.

hahaha!! don't be so paranoid, maybe you post short comments or just post harsh answers/questions.. don't worry, it will go up again.. it's just a matter of how you post to other people, how it helped them or how amazing your posts are...
