What do the stars mean?

I looked through the FAQ's, but I don't see anything regarding what stars mean under your user name. I have a bunch of them under mine, and I noticed other people (at least the posts I've read) don't. What do they mean?

Also, maybe I'm just over looking it, but where would I find information on the way the forums work in general? For example, I'm a newbie. How many posts before that status changes, and what's the next level? Oldbie?

Re: What do the stars mean?

This is the way it is set up as of august of this year, there may be a thread on it somewhere but at this time there is no page where this is cleary defined.

10 posts 0 stars
50 posts 1 star
100 posts 2 stars
200 posts 3 stars
500 posts 4 stars
1000 posts 5 stars
2000 posts 6 stars
4000 posts 7 stars
7777 posts 8 stars
12000 posts 9 stars
20000 posts 10 stars

Lastly AF server donors have all purple stars regardless of post count and moderators have all yellow stars regardless of post count as well as a custom user title if they so desire.

John;
Is it normal for a group of posts to vanish around here? Did I miss something? Did this thread get out of hand and need to be "hosed down" or something?

Yes I cleaned it up a bit. Nothing personal to the posters.
