I just came back online yesterday,after being off for over three months.I decided to work Mylot again, because I enjoyed it before.I saw the star above my name but it wasn't their before.I think they made some more changes on Mylot.I still like it though. I earn some extra cash and meet new friends.Could someone explain to me what the star is for.I guess it's your rating or what?

This is known as star rating . It is Mylot user reputation system . This star rating is provided after reaching 100 points on this Mylot site . the highest star rating is 10 (i.e. 100 out of 100) and the minimum star rating is 1 (i.e. 01 out of 100) . so best is 10 . This star rating mainly denotes our activity on this site; And it also reveals the quality of our posts as perceived by other Mylot members ( thru +,-,! ratngs) . pls see more details abt this star reputation system at a discussion started by Mylot : http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/573319.aspx see also this Mylot FAQ  : http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq11.aspx You already have good star rating - keep it up .
