do you get paid for having youre response marked as best response?

If you get the Best Response, it use to give you an extra point for it. I am not sure if that is still the same or not. If you give them, it attracks more to your discussions.

No, we don't get paid for a best response. I wish we would, because after a person has been here a while, they have quite a few! I'm not sure, but I think the FAQs address this subject. You can find the link to them at the bottom of the page. It also tells about star ratings and all that. It was helpful to me, I just wish I had read them before I got knee deep in MyLot. It would have helped significantly!
