Mylot reputation is always according to the star beside your name right? I would like to ask if what is it for? does it increase our income? what will happen if you already get 10?

Hello there! Well, user rating or also called mylot reputation affects the user's participation earnings. As stated on the FAQ section: "The goal of the DRS is to help keep the quality of myLot discussions as high as possible for all members. The DRS is factored into our proprietary earnings algorithm, so this will help us properly reward valuable contributions to the myLot community." It means that the rating of a user is also a factor for calculating the participation earnings aside from the quality of the post. For more information on DRS and earnings system, read on the FAQ section. Have a nice day!

Last I knew.. The Star rating had no effect on our earnings.. but mylot used to give you a small increase for best responce .. good quality answers.. Not sure if they do that anymore.. one member replied to me stating the best responce does not increase our earnings.. It used to 3 years ago..

Yes, there is additional earnings when you get a best response. The reputation can affect the participation earnings because it is also included for the calculation of earnings. It is to motivate the users to improve the quality of the discussions in here and to reward them properly.

Many members state that your Mylot reputation will not affect the amount you earn. But, it does. If you dig deep into the earning FAQs, you will see that it is built into earnings.
