Well I have tried looking around but couldn't figure it out either by searching or reading the help areas. What the heck are the little blinking dots or stars etc under peoples names mean? This is the first forum I have seen them on and was just wondering.

Thanks

Apparently, they signify how many posts you've made. So at some interval, you will get another circle or star and go up a rank.

I figured that it was something like that. I was just kinda confirming by finding I guess.

Thanks.

Once you get 300 posts then you get a star, and I blieve once you get 1000 posts you get another star.

Im so far away from two stars.....
