how much you earn?

To date I have 7.27 for 321 responses. I beleive that is fair, as it is about on average more than 2 cents per post. Recently some kids really messed up my user rating (the star thing beside my name) and the amount of money I earn on here is decreasing. I am not, hoever, concerned much about the amount of money I earn, as I come on here to share intellect with others and my investment is in knowledge, not spending countless hours for a few cents.

That's pretty low. I have $2.50 with less than 100 posts when that count was updated. I think I did so well because I have 3 best posts, a few huge topics, and 10 referals so that may help. I'd say quality over quantity is the key seeing as I have less than 1/4 your posts and more money than you.

Wow...that sounds really low. Do you have a lot of short answers when responding to discussions? I have earned $15.37 from 643 posts.

I have just over $11.00, i havent read all your posts and responses but i would say that you have only been posting one line answers or discussions, just like this one you have posted. Also your rating is only 2 which indicates that you are not giving well thought out responses, my advice would be to only post replies to topics that interest you, that way you can post a longer reply and you will earn more, also keep on topic, if you post just one word or one line you wont earn and people will continue to give you a negative rating.
