Question for Rick (Yellow Stars)

[andy j]

Rick what is the deal with the yellow stars below the names, I thought it had to do with how many post a user had but its not. AJ

[Paul Waldowski]

Andy it has to do with how others rate you. Just as you can rate a post, you can also rate a user. Click on there username and look towards the bottom of the page. You can rate the user anywhere from 1 to 5. 5 being the best

Thanks Paul,

so right now I am rated with 3 stars, it someone decides to give me 1 or 5 it will change? That seems king of cool I quess? AJ

Hey...how come I have -5 stars all red...? Nobody likes me...

Just kidding, but it's nice anyway, I am finding new "gadgets" to play with the new format.

Andy I just voted for you, but it didn't go up much.

I like the Who's Online link

[Rick]

I see you received you answer

[andy j]

Thanks guys, Valv I am going to give you another star because of your great contributions to the expert/equipment forum. AJ

So, is there a time frame for the amount of stars one accumulates?

I noticed some people had 5 stars, now they are sporting fewer stars.

Do you loose stars if your post is ill recieved by the concensus of the forum participants?

Are they eliminated by the voting board of light saving Star Patrols?

Or do they one by one dissapear over a time frame?

"My god.....it's full of stars!!"

Hhhhmmmm who can I give another gold star to??? I feel so powerful!!

[wastewaterguru]

OK Now I feel like a nit wit. I was just playing with the rating thing and gave MT NET 1 star. I was under the impression that I would be able to offset that with a 5 star vote.

I didn't realize that we could only vote once......

Sorry MT NET.......

[MT Net]

LOL

I was a 5 star poster LOL, now after getting 1 from you, wastewaterguru, I now have 2 stars! Did I slip to 1 star previously?

Oh my stars!

Fun messing around, eh?

[Valv]

Ok, Ok, quit your crying MT Net, I just gave you 5 more stars....happy now ???

Children......

[MT Net]

Sweeeet!

Better play nicely kids or else I will have to take away all of your stars

[Sheephead Slayer]

where have the stars gone??

[Granny]

Maybe if you would start being a little more friendly on here they would give you some stars back . I am guessing they took them off all together.
