WOW! a red star that says 9 on it, and when I hover my mouse over it, it said (at the time, not sure if it changes) 86/100. What does this mean? Why am I somewhat highly ranked? I know there's LOT more active mylot.com users out there then me!

Well activity doesn't matter, it's quality and how others rate you. The 86/100 shows you your exact rank, it rounds it up to a 90/100 or a red 9 star that you have. I have been stuck at 88/100 for a few weeks now, no one seems to be rating me lately. I was a white 7 star when I got to my one-hundredth post, so you are ahead of the game and will get 10 in no time, but I am at a stand still haha. Once you get past 95/100 you will get the blue 10 star, so good luck, and happy mylotting! Congratulations as well!

My first star was a 9 too. I was amazed, then it went up to a 10, the next day it was a nine, the next day it went up to a 10 again, I didn't know about hovering a mouse over it you taught me something new thanks.

I think your discussions are of good quality and users rated them positively. So your ranking is high.wrell when I start my star ranking was 7. but in next day it become 8 and day after next day it become 9. Now I have my star ranking 9 but initially it was 93/100 now it slipped to 90/100. From last month I am not working too much in mylot frequently due to some personal problem but still my star retained to 9 star.

aw, thank you very much! And yeah, I'm not on here too often now, since I've became a receiving clerk for a hospital. But I try to jump on here during my lunch break. Good luck to reach your rising star!

Congratulations candymarie. You got an 8 and a yellow star now. But its really great for a start. Keep up the good work and enjoy your new rank. The rank signifies your participation over here and how users rate you. Depending on all those factors you get assigned a rank. I'm sure you can do much more better and get your self a 9 and then soon a 10. Just be active, its the key to getting ranks. All the best!!!

THANKS! Yeah, not sure how I got the 8, is there a way to see what gave you the negative rating? I don't mean to find out who did it, but what response/discussion started got the bad rating?

will congratulations my friend what I can see is that you have crossed the hundred mark and that is the reason why you quote the star to your account. The star is not a representation of their activity but it is showing how important you are. the stars definitely depends on the quality of boost that you are doing here on the website. A good quality will definitely improve the stark. Although already you have a nine star rating and it is very difficult to improve on that would still I would suggest you to keep on maintaining the same slow because it will definitely be very beneficial for you.. when I first got my star it was a nine .and I'm still having the same. It seems it is very difficult to improve on the quality of star. Best of luck for you

Congratulations, my friend. Just remember you cannot make all the people happy all the time. Be true to yourself even at the expense of something like your star rating.

Yeah, I figured after reading quite a few people's posts that you don't always have to positive and support whatever that person is trying to say. In fact, I got SO mad at this guy who said I'm too young to get married, etc etc, and I just railed on him, asking him blatanly what age has to do with it, and then further b%&%&ing him out because no where's in the convo did I mention marriage, or settling down, except that one of the guys I'm currently choosing from mentioned he'd like to settle down soon. I'm also sarcastic, which I use whenever I can....actually made a few bad first impressions, because not too maybe were used to that type of humor...those poor poor souls lol. But thanks for the congrats!!
