The *OFFICIAL* Yellow Stars Thread.

Post by **fgalkin** » 2003-05-15 06:16pm

Well, since I've noticed all the yellow stars threads going around, all of them getting locked eventually, I would assume that people have something to say on the issue. However, the announcement thread was locked due to exccessive spam concerning Zaia's breasts, so there is nowhere for us to post our comments. So, let's use this thread (unless the announcement thread gets unlocked again).

Have a very nice day.

It won't stop! Please, let it stop!

Wow, I'm a Lieutenant General already!

I think we should add half a star to those who joined on the first day.

Have a very nice day.

I don't like it. Bright yellow stars don't exactly help accentuate a menacing avatar. If someone wants to know the seniority of someone else, look at their join date! Its all up there.

But I'll live.

Wait, when did you get your title?

So, does length of membership actually denote seniority above modship?
Does that mean I'm superior to Keevan?

Jealous comrade?

Wong was giving them out like candy one day. Ein suggested I post my ideas for a title, so I did, and Wong was gracious enough to grant me this ultimate honor. About 10 people got titles that day...

Ah, but you see, I got my title the old-fashioned way.

Dalton where are you when we need someone to lock this thread.

They look stupid, are not shinny and serve no purpose.

Post by **Colonel Olrik** » 2003-05-15 06:30pm

sigh.. This is nothing but more spam.

Frankly, people. There's nothing to discuss but the fact that I, owning four forums, clearly deserve at least one more of those yellow stars. The injustice of it all makes my heart bleed

I dunno... while it is handy on the one hand... on the other hand, it DOES interfere with the dark and disturbing avatars some of us have... plus, no matter what, I'll always be a couple of stars behind Utsano.

You guys whine too much.

Mike, any way for them to choose whether or not to display these stars in their profiles?

Wicked Pilot · Post by **Wicked Pilot** » 2003-05-15 06:34pm

I think they're cool, but perhaps the color should change, maybe to silver. And maybe instead of stars, we should get death stars instead.

Montcalm · Post by **Montcalm** » 2003-05-15 06:35pm

Hey why not have special color stars for forum moderators.

Edit:I just thought about it white stars for members and yellow stars for moderators.

It's very easy for me to change the graphic; it's a 12-pixel high GIF with a transparent background. Anything which can be shrunk down and still look good at that size would be OK as far as I'm concerned.

Darth Servo · Post by **Darth Servo** » 2003-05-15 06:38pm

I don't care what you do with the stars, so long as its cool.

A choice in the profile would be nice. (like imperial/rebel symbols)
Not that I care too much, but the yellow looks a bit naff.

Post by **Darth Wong** » 2003-05-15 07:19pm

OK, I guess I might as well admit it. I made the yellow star myself

*looks around at the accusing stares*

Hey, I never said I was a graphic artist!

The SubSilver yellow stars don't look too bad, actually.

Andrew J. · Post by **Andrew J.** » 2003-05-15 07:33pm

Visually, the stars are so-so, but I like the idea; onnly naturally, since I have an abnormally low post count and joined in August.

I like 'em, I don't see what's wrong with them. If it's good enough for the military, it's good enough for me.

Which, of course, wouldn't include you.

I like the star idea. I don't mind the way they look. If you want to change them, I suggest little Imperial symbols.
