What is this all about, and is it really necessary? I for one don't really care too much for it.

That is what I was saying earlier. It's like being in high school again and either being popular or unpopular. I want the old star system back!!!!! <img src="frown.gif" border="0">

I really like you Dawn so I gave you 5 stars <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> 5 stars across the board on me!!!!

Hey Iluv80s, you have 5 stars now. I agree with both of you, I wonder if Sal even knows this is how its setup. I'm sure he'll change it and a number of other things in the next couple of days. This is the third time (I think) that he has updated since I've been here. This has been the easiest transition with the least amount of downtime. But, bugs in the system are inevetible. He'll fix them.

I noticed, thanks! I voted both of you five stars too!

Hi DJ, I've been doing the same thing. Either someone didn't realize what they were doing or they weren't being real nice. So far I only know of one member with less than five stars, Sheibub. I already voted for her to have five, you guys should do the same!

Done! and done!

Sheibub was the first person I gave stars to earlier. I thought it was unfair she only had 4.

I'm sure that Sal will fix it eventually <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">...patience grasshopper!!! <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0">

Yes I do! Now can I have your Bud Light?

*Pops the top and hands it to DJ.* Sure, I'll drink the Corona! <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> Cheers buddy!

I made mention of this earlier, but "Nope". Not a fan of the star system. Popularity is a high school concept and does not belong here. Here, we are all equal! I've just been voting five starts for all. And! Whoever have Sheibub less than five stars has incurred the wraith of Shakey... <img src="mad.gif" border="0"> <img src="eek.gif" border="0"> <img src="tongue.gif" border="0">

Ditto on what everyone posted here<img src="smile.gif" border="0"> Especially,Shakey. Everyone gets 5 stars period.

All of you against the star system, apparently were never popular! Just kidding. I like the old system as well.

<img src="wink.gif" border="0">

No more stars! <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> Thanks for the support there Shakey! <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

I was just starting to have fun giving everybody 5 stars.

I was running around handing out 5 stars to everyone last night......if only we got posts for given stars! *I'm kidding* Now, we're all even!!!!

oooh......did you see????? I have 1300 now!!!! WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!!

Yep. I agree, I like the star system based on number of posts better than the voting system. *goes off to vote 5 stars for everyone!*

LOL... didn't read the middle of the topic again... thanks for shutting off the stars! <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

I wasn't crazy about the star voting system either, so I'm glad it's gone... but now, how do we know how many posts we've made!!!

look down under here.....it says posts.....that's how you know. The stars didn't say how many posts you have...I didn't understand what the star system was for anyways....<img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0">

Thanks, Mist, I must have been blind not to see that!!! <img src="redface.gif" border="0">

I came back this morning and there are no stars. COOL!!!! <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

The old star system was way better...members earn their spots with 1-4 stars....the mods get their 5, me and Not Man get our 6, and Sal gets the big 7, and everyone's happy <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Yes, I like the old system as well. But, that was a special modification as well. Since this is an entirely new system, it's going to take awhile for people to figure out how to create those same mods for this new program. But, in time, they will. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

Last night I rated Sheibub five stars and it didn't help any. I didn't like the rating stars anyway.

What do you guys think about getting awarded a star for every 100 posts up to 999, and maybe a different icon for every 1000 posts there after.
I don't know if Sal can do something like that, but it would make the posts a little less subdude.
