After many mylotters ID there is something about rating , for example,"ranked 9 out of 5,084 in questions & answers". But I fail to figure it out.What does the "questions & answers" means? The rating is based on what , the posts or the online time ? Anyone can help me out ?Thank you !

hey i needed information about this too, is it that tiny star above your name? mine says 4 and it says 41 / 100. does this increase when your post count increase? does it increase the /100 when you post in other interest?

What it means is that out of the 5,084 discussions you have participated in 9 in questions&answers discussions. Is does this for all the discussion interests. So if you want to be top, you will have to participate in more discussions lol Hope this helps abit!?

It is a ranking as far as how the member starts discussions, adds comments, and adds responses in the category is all. No extra earnings just the privilage of being or trying to get higher up in the category. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~
