Ting Ho Dung Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 What are they for and how do they change color? I have 4 gold stars. Do they go up or down on "likes"
Caddie Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 After almost 2400 posts, 260 likes and an "excellent" rating (another mysterious accolade), I remain without gold. I think of my stars as silver medals rather than gray. I must have received too many frownies from the mods. from the mods offset gold stars. I don't play for medals or awards. I play for my love of the game. Cheers! caddie
Boomerang~Junkie Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Until this thread - I never even noticed those star ratings were there.Verse two of this tune is : I will forget them again very quickly after this.
Caddie Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 The HFC rank & file, middle class demands an answer on these cryptic codes of stars and ratings. Mods, this is your turf. Please explain. Don't make us sick Ed Snowden and his Gang of Geeks on you. It just takes one discreetly sent email. Worse yet, we might point Ol' Morley Safer at you. Nobody wants Morley creeping along behind him. Cheers!caddie OMG!!! My 5 Silver stars have suddenly turned Gold! So sudden. So unexplained. Its a miracle. I hope my brand spankin' new Gold stars don't spontaneously combust, like all the Spinal Tap drummers.
gorch Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Jez, I wanted to lift you up. No chance! What have you done?
Ting Ho Dung Posted September 8, 2014 Author Posted September 8, 2014 Goddammitt!! How come that Boomerang Junkie has 5 gold stars now and I only have 3? It must average out what each of us gives each other. So all I have to do, since Boomerang probably has only one admirer is to give him one star and it will average to 2.5 or 3.5 since I can't give him zero stars like he deserves.
Ting Ho Dung Posted September 8, 2014 Author Posted September 8, 2014 Yep, Ha Ha Boomerang Junkie. You now have only 3 gold stars.
veatch Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 It's a rating system - like eBay, just no comments. This should please mcchris greatly.
cmatthes Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 I never noticed them before this thread. No idea - must be part of the board software package!
Ting Ho Dung Posted September 8, 2014 Author Posted September 8, 2014 I never noticed them before this thread. No idea - must be part of the board software package! Ha, You Did have 5 stars.
specialk Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Yep, Ha Ha Boomerang Junkie. You now have only 3 gold stars. Look again. Oh, and GTFO!
Boomerang~Junkie Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Michael, This was definitely a brilliant, "SQUIRREL!" moment. Only you could notice and then figure out something that has been on this board for years that even the Mods have never notice before. For that you get the, "Chrome Plated Squirrel" award for the month! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSUXXzN26zg
Ting Ho Dung Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Thanks Boomer, and I'm back up to 4 stars, I feel the love.
Toadroller Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Who knew? Gave you a testosterone boost there Thorn.
Ting Ho Dung Posted September 11, 2014 Author Posted September 11, 2014 Now you have one for keeping this going.You two are assin' my crack up.Who knew? Gave you a testosterone boost there Thorn.You two are laughin' my ass up.
Ting Ho Dung Posted September 11, 2014 Author Posted September 11, 2014 Okay, Is everyone in on a joke here? Everyone I have visited their profile today has 5 gold stars. WTF?? And I am down to 3. God, you guys are such assholes.
veatch Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 And I am down to 3. God, you guys are such assholes. Any chance there is a correlation between these two statements? ... Nah...
gorch Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 The stars are a pretty nice playground. If anyone would point Thorn down to one star, I wonder what he will say next.
LordsoftheJungle Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Coolness,,, I jumped from a no-star nobody to a 5-star bad-ass! I won't let it change me though,,,
Ting Ho Dung Posted September 12, 2014 Author Posted September 12, 2014 Coolness,,, I jumped from a no-star nobody to a 5-star bad-ass! I won't let it change me though,,, That's what they all say. Look what happened to Feynman when he got 5 stars. We don't even know which one is here anymore.
gorch Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Coolness,,, I jumped from a no-star nobody to a 5-star bad-ass! I won't let it change me though,,, Not for long.
