What do the stars mean on our profile, I went through mine and didn't see any explanation. Even without knowing, I want more stars!

So in essence there are 3 levels of stars?

1 star is a newbie
3 stars is a full member
5 stars admin.

We need a way to get 2 stars and then 4 stars also.  :)

I think a newbie sticks with 1 star.  Then when a full member they should get the 2nd star.  At 500 posts you get 3 stars and at a thousand you should get 4 stars.  Just my 25cents

There already is two you get it at four posts or something like that, you get 3 at ten posts. they don't have them above that to avoid silly post races  and users spamming the forum.

I am going to take a different approach. I will never ask for a custom title.

I will however travel to every pet shop in Sydney and hurt a small defenseless mammal everyday until my demands are met.

I will start with the cute bunny all the pretty girls want to hold at the pet shop just around the corner before my trip to the koala park.

I'd like to submit, on behalf of Tommy:
     
     "I have rose-colored cornea's"
or
     "I like the Giants because of the pretty colors"

Oh, and American Demon needs to have "I ride the short bus" added to his, since he's so "special ;) ;D
