What are these stars below my name, How did i get one, and why do some people have more or less. Could not find a place to post this so i thought what the hell, Spam will accept anything! xD

I've been trying to figure out the algorithm to them myself. Here's what I know/Don't know. They appear to symbolize short term activity. I think it's directly related to how long you've been logged in recently. However, there also seems to be a daily cap. IE leaving the site open 24/7 does not = more stars. Spamming constantly doesn't seem to add at a large pace. So I'm thinking it's a combination of time logged into the site along with number of posts made within that time. I had three stars, but it went down to two stars after I hadn't posted anything for like a month. I'm posting again now, but it's not going back up to three very quickly... However, my rank did increase by 2 within the last couple of days. Hence my proof of cap, activity relation, etc. LineageII \| LoTRO \| RFO \| 9Dragons \| Aion \| Perfect World \| Ether Saga \| Dungeon Runners \| GuildWars \| Hellgate London \| tCoS \| Warhammer \| AoC \| Tabula Rasa

Alright, well I just saw a "Hard Core Memeber" with 3 Stars, 29 posts, and less than a year of membership.... I've got 100 posts, 3 years of membership, and I'm an "Apprentice"? Kind of a stupid system that doesn't reward seniority what so ever... It appears to be based SOLEY on time spent navigating the website while logged in.
