I am new to mylot.
And I find out that some member's user name has a star next to it.
And also there is a number in the star.
I don't know what it's meaning and how to get this.
Anyone can tell?

It shows our participation level. The more active we are, more reply, more discussion we join, we will earn it.
If you put your cursor on the star, you can see our reputation. The higher number is better of course :)
It takes time to hit a star. You can always earn it by being active in forum for starters.
Good luck and welcome to myLot!
