What does it mean?

I had more than a hundred comments now (yehey) and I noticed that I gain a star with my name and it has a number 8 in it. I was trying to figure out what i means, so I tried to check the other mylotters, then I got confused because I ranked 8 having 100= plus comments and then another has the same rank but he has 1,000+ comments. So, what does it really means? Does it have any significance? I would appreciate of you could tell me=)

well i just aksed this question not to long ago, as i did not know myself and now i read F & Q here on mylot help section.. i did get alot of good answers as everyone is ready to help other mylotters so i love that.. the star is how good you are and how well your doing. by not just how many post or answer you do its more the quality of your answers and you as a whole.. i just got raised up to a 9 so i was happy.. i think 10 is the highest you can go.. so it means that you are doing really good and they have seen improvement from you on some level.. be proud and aleays do your best an your will go far and that goes for anythign in life as well.. take care and have fun it counts as well.. congrats on the new star..

hello,laken02.i see from you that i can fall back on F&D if i have any questions.though my reasearch,i find that all of you have a star,the different jjuat is 8 or 9 ,and i have nothing.i know because i am a freshman. i will fighting and fighting ,write more sophisticated comments with my heart,and i believe that i will have a star in the future.

dianon __ice look why do you think that the admins sent you links to read hte information in the gu idelines and the FAQ's so you would have all these questions already answered thed stars show the percentage of our reps we g et when fellow mylotter plus or minus our posts as they rate u s. the higher percent reputations earm much more so it p ays to make quality posts that will garner plu ses from all of us. do not forget to rate posts as you respond to them but please please please do read the guidelines and the FAQ's as all the information y ou need is right there to be looked up again and again til you can remember it.the number has nothing to do with your reputation the 110 shows your activity and the one with 1000 shows his or her activity .they have notghing to do with the star at all or your reputation.read the blasted guidelines really thats what they are there for we all read them as we started here. save your discussions for more interesting topics than how to do my lot as you will know how to work mylot if you would just read the guidelines and the FAQ's as the admins expected you to.
