What do you say about the new rating system from Mylot???

I definitely love this new change in myLot and hopefully it will get people to create quality discussions and better replies and comments. I like this idea and the good members and new members can tell who is active and gives good advice, suggestions and discussions. Only time will tell if this will work but I like the new look here.

Its kinda cute to see this star... ^_^ i really hope this new method will help the community to have better discussions.

Not trying to be defensive but I will pst whatever I want to post I still earn money, so I don't care about the system. I have 8 it's fine with me.

The longer I am here the more improvements I am seeing with MyLot. The discussions and responses have improved greatly. I am impressed.

I started a same discussion a few minutes before. So dont thin i copied you. I dont know how they calculated it. But i am happy with the ratings. I have got the same as you. I have 9th rating. Would love to reach the number one rating. Will do that. will reach that goal. I think this is a good sign, a lot of implements and improvements happening in mylot. Site is gg=etting famous day by day, so i am sure it will be the number one site like other sites.

I haven't read anything in that alert about any kind of monetary incentive. I think it's a good idea but, ultimately, it's not really going to do anything unless there is some money to back up these ratings. Hopefully they will give a little more incentive so that we can be rewarded for the effort it takes to make quality posts.

dunno what to think i need some time to see if this new system is really good i think it will be good but who can know:D

though it did not really mention anything if it will boost or help in anyway to ones earnings, i say it is one good way also to keep this site a good one. involving each member to do their part in making this community 'clean' from those not so good threads and or members. greetings. : )

I think its good..but maybe discouraging for those who have lesser rank. but hence forth they'd have to start quality discussions in order to increase their quality.

I like it. Hopefully people with low ratings next to their name will be encourage to raise it by posting better quality content. It also lets people know where you stand in the mylot community.

I think it is great because I feel someone in my lot is noticing if we post or respond following the guidelines and not cheating.

This sucks...well not really. Thanks for posting this.

to tell you the truth i kinda like it becaue you dont have to rate the respones good or bad anymore i think you can just look to see what they are its nice

How effective will this rating system be....

Hey, thanks for pointing that out. I had not seen that yet. Seems to fit in with mylot's goals. I wonder how the fans will like it. Have a great day!

I don't think it's a bad idea, except that i have 604 posts, and i don't see any stars next to my name. Why is that? Did they start with the stars already?

I dont see a star next to mey name does that mean I dont have one yet? I have more than 100 posts but just barely so maybe I dont have a reputation yet. Does this mean if people rate me good I can get a star? What does the star do for you do you get paid more?

i guess this is an good idea, but not sure how it can motivate user to post quality discussions. this is just a point, doesn't have anything to do with your incentive. here most of the people doesn't know each other. so got 10 and who got 2 doesn't make any sense to me! Why i will try to enhance my own score? By enhanceing the my own point what the benefit i will get ? - mylot should answers this two questions. that is the reason yahoo massenger didn't get a great success. they also have the point system and it no way going to benefit the user. it just a stamp. until and unless user are directly affected by the point system, this not going to help to improve the quality of post. A distribution pattern can be followed by this point system. for example, who has point between 8 to 10 they will get 20% of extra on the base rate people usually get for a response, similarly 5 to 7 will get 10% extra and 1 to 5 will get the base rate. What do you think this will help to increase the quality of post ?

I believe the system is just a reflection of the ratings we are getting and aren't we already being compensated accordingly? I think it's a great thing... I just can't wait to get to 100 so I can get a star too!! lol :)

The last time i had a star next to my name was in grade school!!! :)
