that was a very interesting new addition of mylot and a quetion asked by hundreds of users and left with no answer at all this can answer their quetions about their rating
but again there is one big problem in this the new rating will result in some people thinking that they are superior to low rated members mylot may say that it is not that way but it is human to think atleast once that way
one cannot ignore it but it would have been better for mylot if they would have shown the rating to the user alone and not any other person or member of mylot it would have been much better
i hope mylot takes a note about this i will be sending this suggestion to mylot too
wat do you think about the suggestion and what are your suggestions

I guess I agree with you 100%. It is human psychology to think that a person having a higher number next to their picture is of more importance and should be taken more seriously as compared to others with lower ratings.
As far as personal ratings to be shown to the user himself is concerned, well that is a good idea to let the user know him self how is doing and how his postings are being analysed by the mylot team.
I dont understand what was the motive of the mylot team to introduce this star rating system. Some how it is all very unclear. For users like us who are beyond 500 improving the ratings is a very difficult thing to do since the commulative effect has to be done or undone.
Anyways, I hope mylot will improve the rating system and take into account the various suggestions that they are recieving

Sorry, u too pointed out a good point but i disagree with urs point of view. Well, i never saw on mylot that someone used harsh or cheap words for someone by keeping his/her ratings. If someone'll see him/herself that my star is lower than other person then he/she'll compare his/her work with the person who has better number of star and will improve his/her perfomance and will earn more money but its really very bad that mylot gives 10th star to specially usa residence and then to euorpeons. I saw many Asains whom work is much better than euorpeons with 10th star but they have 9th star.

Stop thinking in the line of rating and earning.
Automatically you will move towards the quality posting and most useful discussions,there by you reach the unplanned goal in a planned direction.
I see so many people are just going discussing on mylot only rather to discuss the actual problems and topics of discussion they have.
