Those Little Stars Under People's Names

[The Dude]

I had thought that they were markers for a "three strikes, you're out" approach to banning people. But then I saw three stars below somebody's name today. Is he now banned, or am I missing something?

(Please forgive an infrequent OOTer his ignorance.)

Careful...posts like this might earn you a star from the powers that be... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Seriously though, whats up w/the stars?

[MelK]

I think the bigger issue is knowing how to change our user names. I mean, you'd think they would have a temporary sticky or something for that. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

someone should sticky a thread explaining stars or link it in an faq or something

From OOT, or from 2+2? I thought I saw people with 3 stars making new posts in other forums.

[astroglide]

i ban people entirely. there's no 'ban from oot' option.

[diebitter]

you don't do the 'voluntary exile from OOT as long as you stick to other forums only' thing?

Didn't know that.

Can you get stars for regular posts or only for starting bad threads? Just wanted to clarify.

If someone trolls in a thread, even w/o starting a new one, I sure as hell hope they get stars.
