Hi AC,

What to you mean by "no ranking system by posts"?  The stars seem to be auto-assigning.  For example, I've got several and so does PPH because we're moderators.  I think you've gone up to two because you posted?  Would you prefer this switched off?

Oh I see, what happen if you have 100 post will you have 100 stars, thats a lot of stars, might have to turn off that option.

3 post still 2 stars?
When do the stars change to more?

OK after much digging around the star system works like this:

0 Posts - 1 star
1-49 Posts - 2 stars
50-249 Posts - 3 stars
250-749 posts - 4 stars
750+ posts - 5 stars

Personally I don't mind these sorts of systems as most forums have them.  But like everything here it's open to discussion and if the consensus is to either turn them off or adjust the limits I am happy to do so.

So that means I'm going to have to make a few posts (750) to get 5 stars...
