Hmmm...I need to make up for lost time, where the boards ate my account for a bit... I wonder what my count is now?

Don't quote me on this but I think the breakdown is as follows

1 star 1-25 posts
2 stars 26-250 posts
3 stars 251-500 posts
4 stars 501-999 posts
5 stars 1000+ posts

I am sure on the 1, 4, and 5 star amounts. The others are fuzzy.

I can confirm 1000 gives you your 5th star...

I guess I should take this time to complain about the 200-odd posts I lost a couple years back during the early days when the board went t*ts up?!

Ahh... For the good old days of sub-500 posts. [:D]

He must have not been inebr....whatever that word was...[:D]...when he posted that. I was sober when i read it and was surprised to find it spelled correctly. It must have been one of his 4...[:D]

edit: i commented on two posts as if they were one...i guess I'm seein' double?
