Hi GOGers. I'm still kinda new here so please excuse my sometimes inane queries.
My question is about the little stars that appear next to you're rep. How do you get those? Do you have to do something special like answering someone else's question (and, hopefully having it marked solved), or is it tied to the number of posts you make?
Nothing special or anything, just kinda wondering is all. Still getting a feel for this great site.
Thanks guys.
See my post? Hover your lovely cursor up and there's a + and - button. Click on them and your rep doesn't automagically change, but a lot of people have to click on the buttons too. If you answer a question and is marked as such, you get five rep automatically.
Someone wrote a lengthy explanation...

The little stars:
1 star @ 25 rep
2 stars @ 150 rep
3 stars @ 450 rep
AAHHH, now I see. Sorry ZamFear, I guess I missed that post. And i just realized that I forgot to mark this question as a "question". Duh. Oh well, I could only have marked it solved for one of you anyway. I did click both of you're plus buttons though. :)
Thanks guys.
Clicked your's too Namur, thanks. :)
