What do the coloured stars with numbers mean?

Firsr, Kimmijayne, welcome to myLot....I hope that you are finding our community a nice place to come for advice, laughs, making new friends, sharing, and making some extra income.... The stars next to everyone who has posted 100 discussions or responses will have one of these...they represent the rating as decided my the general myLot community.....upon posting your 100th post you will receive yours.... It is important that you rate the discussions as you read and respond to them...this is part of the rating system...you will find these +, -, and ! at the far right side of the screen beside each discussion and each response....the plus sign is a positive rating, the negative , and the exclamation point is to be used only to report an offense against myLot rules and regulations... I hope that you find this imformation helpful....and again, welcome....

The stars are to do wuith a rating system. If you have a high rating, it means that you have been getting better ratings for your discussions. You can contact myLot and ask them about it. I know because I was a member when it was started.
