i never thought i'd get a 10-rating star. i've been seldomly visiting myLot due to my busy schedule but i really try to post something when i get the chance. i thought i'd be forever stuck with a 9-rating star! and just today, after posting a comment, i noticed that my star turned blue and there was a 10 inside! woohoo!! ^__^

welcome to mylot, lquiambao. you will find it easy to let that star come out by posting a lot of responses. each response is worth a point. if you are still a student, you can devote a saturday or a sunday for the purpose. then, once you have reached a 100 point mark, out that star goes. from then on, you will find it easy to get the rating higher. your mylot friends will all be willing to give you the tips in order to achieve it.

someone told me before that it has something to do with the content of the response, i mean, if its long or short. ^__^ you'll probably get your 10-star when you reach 200+ posts. ^_^

so this is the secret! i got my first star rating with a 1. it refused to move upwards at all because, i have continuously refused to post a discussion of my own. i have taken a stand to just keep on posting responses to discussions i like. then, after more than a month's stay here and more than a thousand points to my credit, i have thought of one discussion which i found worth posting. it was about environmental concerns. upon having posted it, my star rating climbed fast to a three within a matter of 2 days. this development encouraged me to keep on trying posting more discussions. i saw my star rating soar. i know now that there is a need to post something like 5 discussions a week and make at least 30 responses a day to have a good mylot reputation per star rating standards. i learned it the hard way because, i never consulted with anyone then. i must have asked for inputs from fellow mylotians. i should have learned my lesson the easier way around, had i taken the courage to consult.

i always keep in mind that quality matters more than quantity. i didnt know that there's a quota. 30 posts per day??? if myLotters are graded by that then i probably have failed a long time ago. ^__^;; hey look, you got a blue star! congratulations!

Superb my friend. I knew you would. Want to know how I know. In addition to posting good discussions, the other reason is people are voting + for your discussions & responses. You know I am. I want some of that credit, he he. LOL ‹(°¿°)›

congratulations, secretbear. your name and your avatar are both cute and nice. we have the same observations regarding how difficult it is to move up to a 10-star rating once we have reached a nine. it seems to take forever to move up. i was already resigned to be deserving to have a nine forever when, all of a sudden, i got the surprise of my life! i had a ten one day and a blue star to boot. i know that this development has made you happy as i felt the same when it happened to me. keep up the good work and continue with your mylotting days.

congratulations~~~~~~~~ I have reach my grade 9 and never grew up now. how did you reach it ? post lots of new post with good quality ? and reply with good quality. I always write lots of words per post or per response. but I could not let my grade to 10. I hope I can reach it asap. I already stay 9-rating for about 2~3 weeks. i think I have to work hard.
