(I took off my stars. I shouldnt have been displaying them but turns out my user settings had been set wrong. D'oh)
Thanks Quixi
You're right, reaching 500 posts gets you the chonky stars. I'm just assuming billy intentionally did it that way for meritocracy reasons 
Also re: mods - digging around the backend i found the setting that artificially pegs their # of stars at 5 .... I suppose this was from the time when most volunteer mods didnt have a lot of posts under their belt and 5 stars was considered an upgrade, not a demotion
So should I just get rid of that limit altogether? Or upgrade mods to 10 fat stars?
