I wonder why my ratings keep on droping as am sure that I don't against anythings that probably will cause my responses to be deleted.......its that some kind of bugs or anything else?...I found that after the recent upgrade things seem to be change a lot in good side as well as the bad side.....its kind of disapointments to see many of those ratings just drop like that..........anyone of you out there have a similar things happend to you?

Mylot has already given explanation why ratings of many people dropped. It is due to removal of certain topics where you might have responded. Once the topic is removed, automatically the responses also get removed. If your responses are not in conformity with mylot rules, chances are those are removed. Hence the drop in rating. Imust have lost more than 200 last month.

Yes, thats completely true and I did make known of this issues few days after my topic been post and thus it didn't border me anymore(Ratings Drop) since the root cause was clarify. The only things I wish to my make comments was that I think they should ONLY delete those responses been posts after their proper guidelines been announce which will be more reasonable since there's totally no guidelines to follow. Anyway am glad at last they manage to make it in more proper way.I figure that me too had drop around 100 to 150 during the clearance.

As I start monitor the issues since it last happened I believed that mylot still having their clean up process for the old posts. I am pretty sure I didn't against any rules that will cause my rating drops again since lat month and thus simply tell me one thing...our old discussions were still in their delete lists/process. If that happened to be true then members like us who joined before their guidelines will be the most affected group and we will still facing this ratings issues for at least 1 or 2 months. I had saw a news from mylot that our ratings will be affected(drops) whenever we post a comments/responses to a discussions.By the way me too still having the ratings drops almost everyday ranging from 1 to 3 ratings every 1 or 2 days:(I am thinking of send them a messages to get some explanations on this issues....annoying to us:(

hmm...i can see that your rating are going up...i think it may be some bugs..cos when the earnings was updated on 25th nov...i have 0.00 for discussions on 24th nov. after sending a message to mylot, the earnings has been updated accordingly...maybe you should check with mylot!

Actually I responses for at least 140 to 160 responds yesterday alone but after deleted I left only about 120 ...I do think that it might be the server was not very stable yet and I can found others members were having the same problems too:( Its good that you can get your hard earn back:)Thanks for your respond.

Yeah I think maybe they were not that convenient to run a complete test for every new features they implements and that's why cause the system unstable at first.Anyway I think the "Ratings drops" should be cause by the normal clearing process every now and then. Thanks for your respond.

this happens when mylot catch someone coppying discussion topics. Its frustrating for those of us who have replied to the coppied discussions because our posts get deleted too so our numbers drop .

They are using an algorithm for calculating your rating (and earnings) and since there is no way for us to know how exactly it works, I guess we have no choice but to live with it.
Just ignore the rating or at least don't be too bothered by it. :)
