over to the side of each discussion ie - + and ! Thiese are how the othere myLotters rate the discussions. - is negetive and + is positive and ! is for reporting people that copy and post other people discussions or if the response is not relevant ot the responder is just being crule to the poster. You will get a star when you reach 100 posts. If you wave your curser over the star it will show a percentage and that is how your fellow member rate your discussios and responses.

It's up to you when you rate anyone. Personall I do each discussions that I repond to. It helps to keep track of the discussions if I look and it's already rated then I don't have to look trough all the reponses to see if I responded to one. I also like to give most of the responses a rating. I very seldom give a negetive. If I feel a response needs a neg I just pass it by. I hope this helps
