i dont give a damn bout my lot reputation!

Hmm interesting, I watch this site regularly even I'm not active in discussions last 4 days and I see looks like some "groups" found the way to cheating mylot reputation. Alright.... if that really true people start to cheat it I don't care about this reputation again.

On the one hand, I can see how it matters to people. Your earnings are based on your rating. If your rating is lower, so is your pay. On the other hand, I'm not willing to censor myself and brownnose in order for people to rate me positively. (disclaimer ... I am by no means saying thats the standard practice for anyone with a high rating, lol ... just commenting on particular ones I have seen doing this very thing.) I state my opinion, never offensively, but honestly ... and people tend to take offense and rate negatively ... which is quite obvious by my current rating, lol. These are also the people who haven't taken the time to read the rules and don't seem to realize that you're not supposed to rate based on whether you agree or not, only on whether or not the persons response was well thought out, etc. When it comes down to what's more important for me, I'd rather be honest and attempt to be informative ... if some people don't like it and rate me down because they don't happen to agree, or didn't like the way I phrased it, so be it.
