Calculate your REAL myLot Star Rating.

It is an interesting analysis.With this my poit 8 comes correctky!

Hmmm - well being completely honest with myself too, I would be a seven. I'm pretty good with most aspects, but the one I fall down on, is reading through everything in other peoples' discussions before I respond. I get email alerts about friends' discussions, and when you click on them, they just give you a box to respond to the question. To click out of that, go back to MyLot, and find the relevant discussion, and then read it all before replying, would be too time consuming for someone who has very little time as it is. So guess a 7 is about fair.

I got 19 so I am right on. I have a few discussions that I have not given best response to but I will I just like to wait to give more the chance to respond before I pick one.
I do not answer discussions with more replies than I have time to read. If it has over 50 I will 9 out of 10 skip over it unless it is really a good one. If it was not for that I would have been an 18, I do not want to read 89 ways to say the same thing and many of them are just the same thing over and over.

hey im still a nine, even when being totally honest, well done for working this out for us all. Blessed be

Well I had 12, so that would be a six also. But a high six! LOL. This was fun. And it made me think how I've slacked since I first signed up. I've been busy with other things. Honest. Slack. Snark. I am in a vicious cycle. I need to make money by writing more articles, and the more articles I write the less I can contribute at myLot. But I miss myLot. Actually I probably*will* have a six pretty soon.

Interesting thread.I got 19.I haven't started too many discussions yet and I couldn't give myself a 2 for that.Moreover,I respond to all replies I get perhaps because it isn't a daunting task yet,unlike some other discussions I have seen here.One of them has roped in close to 1000 responses.It's a different matter that the discussion was started 5 months back.It was fun and introspective.Thanks.

Honestly other than the fact that the star is blue and I like the color, I dont worry muc about the rating. Although in general it may correspond with the quality of responses and discussions posted, I find that often it has a lot to do with how many friends the person has that actively rate discussions and answers, and even how far along the line of answers a person posts ( the first pages in each discussion are usually rated more than subsequent pages I think because a lot of people ends up skipping them). ON the other hand people rate your responses because they found them informative or interesting somehow and that might get them to look for more posts from you or discussions that you answered and them they might rate positively again, so in a way it does correspond to the quality a bit. Either way, although its interesting to have a high rating, as many people pointed out, it doesnt seem to have any effect on earnings.

Heh I think Im at 6-8

Hey, this is pretty neat. Actually I did your questionaire completely honestly and arrived at a 7. Right now my Mylot star is an 8. To tell you the truth I don't get hung up over the star rating and do not understand why people obsess over it. I look at the discussions and if I like them I post a response. My main reason for being on Mylot is to have fun and learn a lot. The pennies are a little bit of icing on the cake.

According to you test and chart I would have a rating of 8 stars. I am still not sure hw MyLot's grading system works. But as I type this my rating is 10 stars, and 99%. In a month or 2 it may be very different I do not know!
