I'm working on it. Indoors cloudy. Outdoors not so much. Disgusted Assistants...

Looks like it is going to rain. Probably when I'm out with them.

Hi. quick question about the forum. I notice that I started out with two stars, and now I have three. How do you earn stars? Don, I used to love to mow and manicure my yard, but I have come to the point in my life where I'm getting little aches and pains. So, I pay to have it done. It's nice, I come home from work and BAM! it's all done. By the way, love your house.

That's a holiday place my mother owns, the real house isn't so nice...

The cottage is about an hour and a half from here, is 400 years old and has walls a yard thick.

Jerry I'm pretty sure it just has something to do with how long you've been a member and/or how many posts you've written. You start out as a junior member, then become a member, then a senior member. Then the staff have varying amounts of stars too, with the social media manager (that's me!) and moderators, super moderators, and if course Spasmod and JohnnyMac as the founders.

It's post based Jerry, up to a maximum of 5 stars, the more posts you have the more stars and a different title comes with it. 

SuperModerators (and Michael) have 6 stars, Senior staff (next in line from admin) have 7 stars and Johnny and I have 8 stars.

Me personally I'd prefer badges to stars I guess but people do seem to like the stars

That's probably because as kids, teachers gave out gold stars for doing well. Movies and restaurants are rated with stars. The main actor is called the "star" of the show. I guess it just caught on.
