How come I have 10 stars?

February 2, 2007 5:02am CST
I don't remember seeing stars alongside any names before. Now I notice I have a 10 star. I know there is a full moon tonight, has that got anything to do with it? Or is it an award for something like being good? It can't be for being clever, cos I am not. Cant be fur speeling eyther, as I mike mistooks all the tyme. Perhaps someone could explain? Thanks.

You get a star after your 100th post. You really had some good posts because you got a 10 initially. Great job. The first time I had a star, I was a 1. =/

hi there you got your star when you reached 100 posts and the star is based on a rating by the people on mylot, so it looks like you have been getting rated + alot! well done!

Hi FREESPIRIT, Hahhahahaha I almost fell off my chair reading your thread :O (BIG SMILE) Actually I have been wondering what these star, numbers and colours all about. Since when I get bored I come to myLot and start reading and posting so it don't matter to me anymore. I just wanna meet nice people here. SMILE:D

Yes I am very grateful to everyone who gives me a plus. In return, I give pluses to nearly everyone with a reasonable response. It does not have to be long and detailed, but as long as I know they have actually read the subject, that's fine One word like good, bad , crap, I agree etc etc, I don't mark at all, also I never ever give a -. Thanks for your response.

Thank you very much. Could it be blue for "boys" red for girls? Yellow?? no there must be some other explanation. I only posted this discussion a little while ago, & already I am trying to catch up with the responses. Its now 12.30 pm in New Zealand so I am going to reply to posts again tomorrow. Oh there is a full moon on its way to you all. Goodnight. We are the first to see it. ha ha

lol, I see you've already received the answer on why you have your #10 star. I just wanted to send my congratulations along to you. It's great when we receive high ratings from people. It means we must be doing something right. And thankfully we are not marked on our spelling as I have noticed we all make errors, even when we try very hard not to. Now, after having said that, I'll have to triple check this post before I submit it, lol

Thanks Angel, I still don't know why we get blue & red stars. I also don't know if we get paid more, so I will just carry on doing what I like doing. If I can help other people with tips that I have learnt with health or making money I am happy to do that. I will tick your + to help you up ha ha.

You have to post a lot of quality posts . And make a lot of good discussions. And after that you will have 9 or 10 star. I posted just one liners until now and i have 5 stars.

Thank you. I don't make many, but I do try to answer when people take the trouble to reply. I have a problem at the moment with my Doctor discussion. I had so many replies that I just cannot catch up. My lap top was down for a few days & I tried to use a clockwork PC. However the responses keep on coming. Hopefully I will reply to everyone within the next few days. Thanks

Thank you Megan. I will not need to go flying tomorrow, as I am already in the clouds. However, I should have gone to bed long ago. While you are nearly at lunch time in Liverpool, I am at nearly 1am in New Zealand. Goodnight. I already previously answered the reply after yours to explain why I couldn't post more replies today.

That's very good. To start at the top is excellent. I started with nine and I felt happy with it. I don't really know the mechanics but most users are saying that's the way you are rated by mylot community. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for your kind response. I am learning more every day, I didn't take notice of the stars before, so can't remember what number I started with, anyway, it feels great to be top of something.

Hi, first off congratulation for receiving the highest star rating. A rare previlege for a user who have just reach 100 points. You should be proud of it sir because it means that a lot of users appreciated your discussions and responses thereby they gave a lot of positive ratings. It really is an honor to have a rating of 10, it represents the reputation of a user the this community. I also believe that it will also affect your earn from now on(for the better). Keep up the good work.

are there any benefits to a high star rating?

Well it makes me feel better, that people think my posts and responses are ok. I will continue to help as many people as I can, especially people who have just joined, (I have only recently joined myself, so am still learning)
