Green boxes represent your reputation, though I'm not sure how you get more boxes or different shades of green for them. I have no idea what the stars are for and what they mean or even how they work.

Stars are based on postcount.

It goes up to five unfilled stars and then stars over with filled stars. Then it says 10k+ once you hit that point and you cry and ask why do I spend this much time on a message board and how has my work productivity suffered because of it.

Some people have to much time on their hands and believe all the world needs to read what they have to say 10 times a day!
Politicians should be required to wear uniforms like NASCAR. At least the TAXPAYERS would know who their corporate sponsors are !

You know, the whole idea behind a message board is kind of wierd- I mean, just posting your thoughts up for people you probably never have and never will meet to read.

You're a MOD, and you don't know how the place works? What are the pre-reqs to applying for the job? Jus sayin...

As on any message board or forum, the stars represent your increase in post count. Different icons are used at different sites. The admin here probably has a choice of 6 or 7 different styles of icons, colors, and fills.

Example: 10 posts you get a blank star. 20 posts another blank star, and so on 'til you reach five stars, then it starts over with filled in stars. You get a blank star every 10 posts. Then when you switch over you get a filled star ever 20 posts. This is just an example. I don't know the actual numbers or sequence for this forum.

The rep boxes work basically the same way. Each time someone flags your rep, it moves up in status. Unless the admin posts the criteria, only they know what the true numbers are.

This was posted on Oct. 30th. Why hasn't someone from Admin or a mod come in here to answer this? Is there a sticky somewhere with the info?

Girl. No penis. And your making a fool of yourself by following me around in the forums and harassing me. You're also mysteriously using the same words in your new posts that I used previously in mine. Your thought processes are so transparent and you don't intimidate me.

Knock it the F$CK off.

If I said something you disagreed with then comment directly on it please. Don't start shadowing me and attacking EVERYTHING I post. It's juvenile and sophomoric at best.

Let's see how transparent my thought processes really are. I'm thinking of a word. It starts with a C. That's right it's...? What?! No it's CRAZY. Crazy was the word.

The reason why no one responded is, because well, Cianne already answered the question. Also it's been answered about a bajillion times and will be answered another bajillion this year.
Maybe not.

I feel so ignored

Maybe I should have Benny put a giant Super Moderator box under my name. But then everyone would forget that I was a super awesome poster for one month back in 2005 (and only won because JB couldn't be nominated twice in a row).
