what is the meanoing of the STAR WITH THE NUMBER IN IT

The star shows the quality and relaibility of your responses, along with how amenable you are with other responders and how well you follow the rules. The other people on mylot too will judge by either giving you a '+' or '-' or reporting you. All the best!

I think it is a user rating absed, on Quality of posts, and number of posts.

The star will be given to all the members upon reaching 100 points (now u have 70, make 30 more p[oints to get a star) and the numbers in it denotes the ratings out of 100. You can see my rating (75/100)by keeping the cursor on my id.

You will receive a star when you have posted 100 responses to other members discussions. Te stars range from 1 through 10 the higher the number the higher your mylot reputaion. You are rated by other users using the "+" "-" "!" buttons. Every plus adds to a higher star rating and every minus takes away lowering your star. To get the positive marks your need to post quality discussions and quality responses. If you respond with 1 liners you will most likely be marked negatively as most will see this as non quality response. Please refer to the guidelines to learn how to rate other members. I hope this helps to better explain the star. :) Welcome to mylot! :)

It's the user's rating, based on other users' rating of his/her posts. I don't have one yet. i understand you get one once you reach 100 posts.
