Can i have another star please?

[Richard B]

i'm sure it was pointed out that at 1,000 posts people became mega-posters & had a fifth star - in which case (being a little self-indulgent) i have a bit of "star-envy". (i'm over a 1,000 with only 4 stars)

On the other hand i do fell i have achieved something positive - not sure others would agree? (When i read this back it does seem a bit narcisistic!!! but it something i'd been looking forward to for a while now)

[Marc van Arc]

I think you'll get your star at 1050. So keep up the good work

[andywoolloo]

don't feel bad, I am totally star less.

[Dave Rinaldo]

I have no stars but actually like it that way!

[Richard B]

i don't feel bad at all really - i sort of set myself a target of getting to this "milestone" & was waiting to see a change on screen.

Only another 990 approx & i'll be at 2,000

You are a star in our eyes no matter what...brightness comes from within...(hehe) is that corny or what

You could always go on a hunger protest until you get your star

Only another 990 approx & i'll be at 2,000

Already counting that next one...you could start putting stick on stars on your computer monitor

Just kidding Richard...I hope you know that...a thousand is a lot of posts and I think you have made a contribution especially in the African Forum

The threshold is 1024, not 1000.

What exactly are all the star boundries?
* - 1+
** - 32+
*** -
**** -
***** - 1024+

How come some people are 'starless'?

[apistomaster]

What a funny topic.
I'm actually a bit self-conscious about the number of my posts because it represents to me that perhaps, I have to much time on my hands.
I know my activities are directly related to trying to learn as much as I can as fast as I can and also share what I have learned about catfish.
The catfish are after all, among the most interesting of all aquarium fishes and planetcatfish and it's members represents a wealth of knowledge and many members have become my friends that I would have never made had I not participated in the discussions.
While all that is true, it is also true I have a lot of time on my hands.

Apparently, you go starless if you donate money. [Or if you are a forum moderator].

Not a great incentive to donate is it. I probably will at some point though, it's such a great site...

Depends on your point of view. Even if I wasn't webmaster, I'd have a positive view of someone who's put their money up. Stars just mean you create a lot of replies. It is unintentional that they disappear BTW, I may get them back but it's complicated and what would you rather I spent my time doing? Getting the next phase of "My Aquaria" online, or getting some stars to appear...

Oh right, sorry about being ignorant, the world doesn't end without stars.

Not a problem, I don't think it was ignorant, but I think you would agree on my point about a webmasters priorities.
