Is there any connection between your myLot rating and the payment you get?

How does myLot determine the payment for each discussion? Is there any connection between the myLot rating and the payment per post? Does a person with rating 10 gets better payment than a user with a rating of 6? Logically, it should be the way. That will also encourge people to post quality stuff here and improve their rating. The tendency to just increase the number of posts will decrease. What is your opinion on that? Your views are most welcome. Thanks.

it seems that the mylot earnings system is varied and complicated and you can never know how it works as it works differently for different members. For me I had a star of 10 and was getting 1c a post no matter how quality I post but it started to get better afterwards without me changing anything in how i post.. i still have star of 10 so I'm sure it doesn't effect my earnings if it goes up or down but still it may work differently for someone else..

You are right. A mystery yet to be resolved and only myLot can explain.

I was wondering the same thing, I have no idea how this whole mylot thing goes...I'm so confused! One day I posted like 10 times and made $0.43, the next day I posted 2 times and made $0.22 or somethng like that...I was and still am a bit confused about it.

i think it may be. may be a person with 10 ratings get more money than a person with say rating 6. But how much that i don't know.I also don't have any proof for it either. But who can say how it varies.

I see, your rating is high than me, so what i can say is just maybe not effect you earning, i have read some discussion about this star rating, it come because someone rate you when add posive comment to your response. i'm just have 6 star rating and before that i'm only have 3 star rating and from my experince star rating dont effect my earning, but if your post is weak, of couse your earning is low but it's is really good to have 9 or ten star rating. It make you look good.

I think that that's part of it, but you also have to consider that the myLot mathematicians have done many, many hours constructing their algorithm. So, it's not only how many times you post, but whether the topics that you made got any responses, how many photos you uploaded, whether you rated discussions, et cetera.
