MyLot Reputation

still new here but that star color very attractive but oh well how should I know if I can change my reputation cause it's depends on user rating to my post / respond :)

It's not a big deal to me either, but I'd like to see if I can get my blue star back. I did have one some ago, but them haters started hatin on me.

hi McC reep;er our reputations are used to factor in with our earnings so the higher we have our reps the better we will earn. So yes I d o value my blue star and 95 per cent reputation of course I do.

The lesser the posts the faster can one climb up and faster too can one climb down. Despite doing everything correctly, despite not violating any guidelines, despite not flaming anyone there are times when one loses stars and that is when users give negative ratings for reasons best known to them. I used to be bothered about it earlier but now I take these things in my stride. I don't get influenced by the stars to respond to topics. I respond to topics if I find I have something to say. I would advise you to do the same and don't even bother about your stars.

Hi there ! Reputation motivates me to do better always and to strive more. The truth , i am an award oriented person , if given an accolade there would be that sense of fulfillment inside. That is why reputation is important for me. I always strive for good reputation though we can't forced everyone but thats okay.

I dont really mind about the star however when it gets really low, i try and check my interest rankings and then I'd find out which interest cost me low ratings. And then i look at the discussions I've posted on that interest and see which one of my responses might have caused a drop in rating and i review my responses there. If it were really abusive then I'd change my style but if i dont think my responses were abusive then I'd try and observe people who might have given me a negative rating. Unless I've got something really good to say to them, i do not interact with them very much. When i was new, i didnt care about those rankings and i just typed a lot of BS on mylot, i was thinking "he'll nobody knows about me and nobody cares", as i stay here more, i learn more things and so i improve myself too. I'm even more spontaneous now when spoken too in real life unlike before. I used to hate people. Now i dont.

I was thrilled to get a red star with a reputation of 89 in it when I reached my 100 posts here. Slowly I get into blue without even noticing it. But after reaching blue it turned to red 2-3 times I felt worried on thinking who would have rate me negative. Slowly I over come those worries too and got back my blue star. In later period I understood the star is affecting our earnings directly. But I never did anything to maintain my blue star. In fact I am less active and reaching payout in 6 months only.

Honestly I don't care anything about Mylot reputation. Earlier I used to see a star and number within it, but I never knew anything about it. Then after that only I read some post by a fellow mylotter that it is our reputation here in mylot. After that I became a littile bit conscious about the reputation and all. Now I will look for my position in almost all of my interests after posting anything and feels good if it near to 1.

Hi McCreeper! Since the rating system is being done by other members, we don't have control on how they will rate us. I don't know if others know about this. There are also some members who do not know that they need to rate others. Personally, I am not very concerned about the rating for as long as I am doing my part here. It will still be on the basis on how we presented our ideas even though there are times that we do not have the same idea as the one presenting the discussion. Our manner can greatly affect our ratings. I should say that thought there are times that I don't agree with the idea presented, I will still do it in a manner that would not appear as I am dominating the discussion or imposing what I want to happen. Have a nice day!

Its a neat thing of myLot to have. I don't let it effect me too much by getting a big ego and I wouldn't let it effect me (much) if it suddenly dropped because of abuse. That's the main reason it would drop quickly. If a steady drop daily though then I might wonder what I was doing wrong.

I know star reputation does not mean anything but it is look very great if we can get maximum star reputation. Now i get maximum star which is 10 stars. i feel very happy when i get maximum star. I hope it will not change again. I think you should respond even some people dont have a star. Sometime some of them give a good responses. Sometime i see some people with a good star make a bad responses.

i'm trying to build a high reputation here just for the bragging rights. bu nothing really serious. as long as i earn here, i guess it's okay. i'm just happy that my reputation here is almost 9.

Reputation? If it means you have to post here like crazy to get a good reputation...no. But it's nice to have a good reputation just in general and I wouldn't care about the stars or the ratings they give you here...
