Stars are rewarded for points earned. Getting stars depends on how long you have been a member, number of posts you have made, and where you post. There are other things to determine your star status.

1 2 and 3 silver stars are earned as you reach 2k, 5k and 20k points
1 gold is shown if you pass 60k points
1 green is shown if you pass 120k points.

A single green star is the end of the star system, except for:
1 blue star means the user is a site subscriber (tool points)

For Tool points, and avatars, please see elsewhere in this FAQ.

To qualify for one of the spinners shown above, you must first join that team and then go to Members/Extra and fill out Why Did I Join. You should have your team spinner by the next day.
