myLot FAQ series: How do I see my reputation?

This is part of the series of Frequently Asked Questions for myLot. For more information on this site, please refer to this article .

What exactly is your reputation? Well, when you have clocked at least 100 posts, you will see a number in brackets next to your username. That number is your rating - my own term for it is post count since it makes the meaning clearer.

Many times, when users talk about your rating (which is in fact your post count), they may actually be referring to your reputation. Officially, the myLot term for post count is rating. Your reputation will be what is referred to by the star you have.

If you have more than 100 posts but no star, it means your reputation is 0. If you are reading this, then I wish you good luck. :P Otherwise, you will have a star with a number from 1 to 10 inside. That number is your reputation, rounded off. To see your exact reputation based upon 100, you need to first determine the browser you are using.

If you are myLotting using Internet Explorer, it is quite straightforward. Just move your mouse cursor over the star and let it hover there. You should see something like the screen shot above. Your reputation will pop up.

If you are using other browsers such as Firefox, simply right-click on the star, and left-click on "Properties".

You will then see something like above. Just read off your reputation. That's how simple. Happy myLotting! ;-)
