+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted August 13, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted August 13, 2008 What do the stars actually represent, because I've been on 3 for a long time, then I went on holiday and didn't post for a month but I am still on 3, hence I'm a little confused as to how they are calculated.PS I thought they represented average posts/day, correct me if I am wrong. The more posts you get the more stars you get. I don't know what count is needed for a new star but it is on total posts and not posts/day.

DaveLegg Developer Posted August 13, 2008 Developer Share Posted August 13, 2008 +1 Vote for having a toggle option! (Y) -Infinite votes for that, as it's such a pain in the rear end to code something like that into IPB, which we then have to transfer across every time we upgrade, whereas doing it without a setting is a matter of deleting 4 characters and adding one other.

NienorGT Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Is putting stars and badge will make the minimum high for a post bigger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 i like the old stars neowin used to have. they were a bit more refined than what we have now. i think the stars should be below the badge, not adjacent as they are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
