A star under your name

Post new topic

Primadonna

I have notice lately that some members have one or two stars under their names. What does that mean?

If you move your cursor over it, karma pops up. I guess the more posts you submit, the more karma you're likely to receive.

Julien

Glad you noticed (the still unofficial) changes :)

stars just appeared yesterday

I guess the more posts you submit, the more karma you're likely to receive.


Actually, it's a quality over quantity indicator. It doesn't depend on the number of posts, but on the quality of your posts. Of course the +1 indicator is important in our calculation.

... you should have a look to your profile > karma ;)

Primadonna

Yes, I found out about that karma.
But who decide if your post is "good enough" and on what standards you get the star?

And Julian, I have never ever a plus 1 on al my posts :sosad:

James

I guess in the end, the people who judge the quality of your postings are those who read them or those to whom you've responded. The +1 is also an indicator too.

Julien

The +1 is also an indicator too


clearly yes. And as we just launched the +1 feature, a lot of counters are close to zero - at the moment

Fred

Let me see....

Ah, two little stars.

Julien

2 stars on day 1

also note the calculation is based on your participation on the whole website and not only the forum (we've got the suitcases for that)

try posting a few articles in the guides or recommend businesses around you and you'll see the difference ;)

Primadonna

So I have work to do ;)

edvilyn

It's interesting!!!

James

Twinkle twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are......... nice to know that I've still got karma at my age Julien. Thanks for being a real buddy!

primadona are you asking me? if your asking me definitely its me. :)

@ Emman Lopez: well nice to meet you again! :D:D:D
I like your posts and by reading them I try to imagine how you look. And when I see your picture is totally different then what I have in mind.

It is not only you but by everybody who post regular.

James

Don't worry Emman, you're not the first to think that I am a cartoonist because of the word animator. In English it also means someone who creates excitement, livens things up. I'm a character, for sure - just not a cartoon character. hehehehe

I thought karma is a Hindu concept. Is it acceptable to your faith if you spelt it different?
