The higher your number is, the better. But don't be upset that your number is a 3, because you are only slightly over 100 right now. The star goes up to 10, and basically it's a reflection of your work on mylot. The more you do, and the better the quality is of the things you do, the higher your rating is. To get a high star number, post good discussions, leave responses on other people's discussions that aren't really short, and give them good quality. Also, try to post a lot, give best responses, and rate other people's posts. Just remain an active member and your star number will go up in no time!

The star rating is out of 10. You can improve it by leaving comments and marking the best answer for the discussions you have started.

The star rating you have next to your name shows the quality of the responses you make. I don't know who gives out the ratings, but it doesn't matter to me that much. The star rating changes and may go up one day and then down the next. You should ask Mylot and see if they can help because going from a 5 rating to a 3 isn't good. Personally, I was happy when I first received my first 8 star rating. The following day it went up. It doesn't matter to me too much anymore. Focus more on the quality of your discussions and try to improve on how you make responses. Hope this helps and good luck!

Ooooh, that's bad. If you went from a 5 to a 3, then it's bad. The higher the rating the better. They also say that the higher your rating, the more you get paid per post. My advice is to spell better. They check your grammar and punctuation.
