Losing Stars

guys....instead of taking 1 star at a time from me, why not just take them all, so people can know i'm an absolute talking monkey who throws shit at people.... this is the only forum i like and can be candid, most of the time i have to work with the retarded testers and just ban them...

all i'm saying is, i dont need yur stars, but i dig this site....i even dig this site with yur shady sponsors^^ those poor kids in china, did you take their stars away too?

    Wow,

    People actually care about those? Why? I mean honestly do they give any more meaning or relevance to a post? Or is an intelligent post still an intelligent post and a dumb one a dumb one?

    I simply fail to see why people pay the slightest bit of heed to them, one of the forums I moderate on we have a post ranking system that people like to use ( see also: Abuse ) from time to time. I find it amusing because I have seen some of the most intelligent post's rated the poorest and the dumbest rated high. Most of us simple choose to ignore them, as honestly rank/rating/post count's are quite honestly the dumbest thing to ever grace a forum.

    How do you calculate my rank?

    Ranks are calculated every day at 2:00AM EST.  They are only based on the last 30 days of data.  We look at the following factors when determining your rank:

    • How many days you visited the site (and logged in).  This is also counted when you use our "autologin" feature.
    • How much information you have posted in our forums (not the amount of posts)
    • The quality of your posts.  If you post lot of "filler" posts that only consist of a few words this will cost you rank points.
    • Any posts of yours that had to be deleted will cost you 5 rank points (there are only 100 total).  To prevent your posts from being deleted, please obey our Rules of Conduct.

    Stars are given based on:
    1) Number of posts per X time
    2) Content of posts (one word posts WILL lower your star count)
    3) How many times you get reported for abuse (Abuse reports will lower your star count).

    Hope this helps. Go read the forum FAQ before accusing the mods of taking your stars away goof.

    staff guy(s) thanks for responding, well said....cuz i do sometimes shoot the shit, make short posts, filter? does that mean i cuss and shit?, and people should know that i'm just a talking monkey<3 

    to the dude who said i was crying- this thread was made in total fun...i dont care, i dont even need stars(i might feel a tad cooler if i had more tho=P)

     i was showing to people at work(firaxis) and they thot it was funny....then showed them the ige ad and they were like ew, but i tried to defend mmorpg.com, decent folks here and C.R.E.A.M.

    Im not going to get into an IGE debate, but it's all about business.
    It's one big circle and the stars on this site help promotion.

    GL on getting yours.
