Your rating???

The number beside your name is your rating and yes it will go up with a post you make and also if you get a best response or a positive (+) rating, but it can also go down if you get a negative (-) rating. If you give someone a rating it will affect their earnings, just the same as happens for you. Your earnings are based on your rating but some responses will get you a higher earning, depending on the discussion. For example, just a few words in the response will get you less than a quality response. You can rate any response at all, irrespective of who is the author of the discussion plus you can rate a discussion started by someone else. In addition you can rate photos that are uploaded for a discussion and/or response. Hope this is a little clearer to you now. :)

I'm not sure how to find my rating either....But I know the number bneside you name is the amount of posts you have made. I'm going to look around now and see if I can find my rating lol! :)
