Current Star System Update

[AtmaWeapon]

Sweet. Now I have something that changes (although slowly) again. :)

Yay. something else to memorize. But the colors are cool. I like the color changes.

[Cronic]

Heh finally I'm in a color category all my own =) I still think 10k should be "Legend" though :P

YOU TOOK AWAY ONE OF MY STARS!
but at least my colors change again, i missed color changes for about 2400 posts, lol.

actually, sb, the number of stars and the star colors always go together, so if someone has 1 post, they have 1 pink star, 3000 posts and they have 3 orange stars. maybe you could change it so the number of stars reflects their posts per day, so we can see how active they are, rather than have 2 systems that say the same thing.

Well since I have a decent amount of stars so I'm happy! Now everyone will brag if they reach a new star rank and not just the next post rank.

Um... Personally, I miss the old stars. I was conceived, born, weaned, and ....yeah, on the old star system. But, if you all like this, then I'll attach myself to this system too.

Some of us have spent the better part of the last couple of years here with Green stars... Attach yourself :p

hehe true.

I remember for a brief time here (before War Lord stepped in with disaproval) Smods were allowed colors of their choice, and admins could use pretty much whatever they wished.

I wore black, and shortly there after gold.

Actually it didn't really have anything to do with War Lord's disapproval. While he did want star colors to be standard for staff, he still let it go. It wasn't until we switched to vBulletin and the stars hack we were using just didn't support custom stars that the practice was dropped. Since the hack updates your stars after every post, it wasn't possible to manually set custom stars for a user, as they'd revert as soon as a post was made. I only just recently coded in the work-around for that...
