Best Response

Each person is in charge of the best response for their discussions. You should go back and pick a best response for all your old discussions. Most people wait a few weeks for responses and then pick the one they like best. The criteria for choosing is up to each individual. I do rate posts. I have never downrated anyone yet. That to me is for really bad infractions such as spamming or something. I haven't seen it personally. I do using the plus rating though for good responses.

I usually pick the best response meaning, the person who made me laugh or gave some good advice or generally gave insight to the other people who may have responded. I try not to pick favorites and sometimes a newbie will get it because they just plain answered the question, if I posed one.

hi there! as far as i know,the poster chooses whom to give the best response to.i'm not really sure but i've read somewhere here in one of the discussions that you are also paid if you give a BR to one your responders.about the plus and minus buttons,i still don't know about them,i think it's a rating,if the response is a positive one or a negative one. happy mylotting!

I only know one answer to only one of your question. A best response is determined by the original poster. Most of the time, when they feel they have received ALL responses they will get, they pick the best one they feel answers their question the best- hence, best response. MyLot does not determine it.
