From all the things I''ve lost I miss my mind the most.

How can some people here get to be Elite Members in under 1 month with 100 posts only.

I really dont get it there are others like me who been here for 3-4 years and still dont have Elite Membership.

to give you an example check this guy here: http://mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/164222/page/1

he joined 30 days ago, he has 110 posts but hey he is an Elite Member.

Next thing he will win 1-2 computers from the contests here.

This doesnt smell right to me

It represents the frequency of your posts.

You can have 10.000 posts and have 1 star if you only post once a month.

You can have 20 posts and be an elite member if you post every 10 hours for example.

Anyway, I don't notice them usually, but it represents the frequency of posting, not the amount.

Justification is an event. Sanctification is a process.

Of course! Doesn't everyone hate those empty spots where you should fit a star into! I just hate seeing them empty.

I think it works like this.

Each day you log in you get 1 point, if you do not login for one day you lose one point.

Each post gives you one point. ( If the post fulfills the criteria, no points for one-liners )

You can get no more then 5 points each day.

So, 20 days as a minimum to go from new user to elite.

If anything that guy is a slacker.. ;)

 /edit

In fact, elite is 80 points, so 16 days as a minimum.

Indeed; our star system is pretty complex, but it means that it's not just about spamming 1 word posts :)
