I have noticed that since I have been answering mostly private questions my rankings have went way up. How do you think that happened? My point is that I will answer a feww on the question boards but for the most part it will be private.

I have found that occurs also even when I mark the answer as to be private. The person receiving your answer will rate it or not. Ratings don't really bother me, as it all depends on the result of the person over a "popularity poll" keep up the good work and focus on the needs of the client over the "stars" I wish you well :)Jill.

Jill, half of me agrees with you while the other half disagrees with you. I am not a 16 year old kid, im 34 and I can actually put this on a resume as a volunteer position and if my rating is high then the better it looks for me.Thats the half that disagrees. The half that agrees with you is I get great satifaction when a client comes back to me and says everything turned out great or they ask me a different question. I am social service oriented so thats why I do this. If you look at the categories im in you will be able to see that. You also keep helping the clients!!
