What do the stars by the user's name mean?

The stars right beside the name of a myLotter shows his/her reputation here in myLot. The reputation is affected by how other myLotters rated your discussions as either Positive or Negative. The more positive rating you get, the higher your reputation will become, or the other way around. They are not that really important but it shows some form of authority in discussions. For example, readers would believe or be convinced somehow by someone with a reputation of 10 compared to another person who do not have a star rating at all. Also, it is something to brag about here in myLot! LOL Your star will appear once you hit the mark of 100 posts. Excited to know what it would be? Keep on posting! (,'')
