Would anyone know why my star # went down? Not that it affects the earnings, or my ability to post disussions, butI am curious.Is this because of bad ratings from other readers?? Why would anyone do that unless I was being down right rude? I try not to comment if I feel a negative response coming on, and I try to respect everyone's opinions on my posts...I don't understand.Please would someone break it down for me??? Thanks in advance!!

Hi jerritts1mom, I don't know about it, but what I know is my went down too. I don't know the reason, I think maybe someone don't agree with what you post not because you are meant or rude or whatever. Maybe just disagree with your post that's all. Don't be too upset aboout it. Take care and be happy. Happy posting.

It might be someone just trying to vandalize your star, because they find it "fun". -_- Terrible but a fact of life on mylot. Other times people will neg(negative) you because you said something they didn't agree with, or because they can't debate. Both of those are against the rules by the way, but I don't see it being enforced. -_- Could be worse Jerr. It could be like me back when I started. I had an 8 at 100 posts. 24 hours later and at 200 posts I had a 4. Yep. That fast and no leads. The thing hovered at a 5 for a brief moment, but in the end it went back to 4. Around 1000 posts I somehow got back to 8, but the very next day I was at 5, then 4, then back to 5. Now I'm at 6 and somehow unable to reach a 7 despite how much real effort I put in mylot (ANYONE is welcome to see responses, discussions and importantly, best responses). I just keep going. Especially with some friends comments after I help them in 120% fashion.

The only thing that can bring your star down is negative rating from members. That's what I know so far. But not to worry, do some more good discussions and respond to some good members here and they will rate you positive. I am going to rate your discussion with a plus so that hopefully it helps your star to go up again.
