Ok, sorry, I have looked everywhere I can think of, and I'm sure it's here somewhere, but what do the stars mean under people's names?  Is there a legend somewhere that tells what the increments are for being upgraded from "newbie" to "5-cent" to "10-cent" etc.?  I've seen gold stars and green stars, varying numbers.  Just wondering where one goes to see what all of these things mean.  Thanks.  Please forgive my ignorance!!! Oo

the 5 cent 10 cent and soda jerk is a scale of how many posts you have sent. But I am not sure what the numbers are to get to the different levels. Jim will know.

Brent,

Thanks for posting the member stats.  I know a lot of people register and only post once or twice, but I'm very surprised that less than 10% of the people who join never get beyond the newbie stage.  Heck it seems like there's at least 100 active members from Michigan alone.
