The stars are our reputations here, the higher the star, the good reputation a user has. It reflects our activity here, on how we post and what we do. For you to receive your star, you have to reach 100 posts first. So make sure that you do good here, it is just one of the features that this site has to offer.

The stars are a person's rating, and it is from 1 to 10. (one being the lowest, ten being the highest). It represents their reputation in the mylot community as good posters and good friends =] Using the +/- buttons, you rate a person's answer as good/bad or positive/negative etc. This all accumulates to form your rating =D I hope this information helps, Resley!

I think once you reach the 100 post mark they give you the star.it may represent the quality content in your postings and your responses and may reflect your active mylotting i dont know yet as i have not reached the 100posting mark.i want to know if it would have any bearing with your earning.
