Default Poker Stars, Small Star Above Avatar?

Anyone ever seen this? I was searching for a player and when I opened up the table, I noticed one of the players had a small white star at the top center of the ring around the avatar.

It wasn't part of the avatar, defintely part of the Stars software, or at least appeared that way to me.

Sorry if this is ancient, common knowledge. Thanks in advance.

I asked a player at a table with it, and someone other than the player told me it was pokerstars.net signups.

yes. it means they signed up through .net rather than .com
if you sit at a play money table, you will probably see a few people with the stars.

That's what I am thinking. Star = play-money graduate? Why don't they just make it a bullseye?

Have you ever seen a star at a real money table? I haven't, but I have seen them when blowing off steam at S8 play money tables [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

The star is for someone who is playing RIGHT THEN on pokerstars.net. So, the only way you can have that is if you are on a play money table.
