The stars on here?  I think it's just based on how many posts you have.

The stars go with your post count and your general title.

You are a minion of mayhem who one day with a little more work will become a chief of disorder! lol

Okay, now I'm the one who's confused. Rebby and I are both Minions of Mayhem. She has like 770 something posts and four stars, but I have like 650 somthing posts and five stars. How exactly does that work? I thought it was like the more posts, the more stars, but evidently not.  :-\

It takes a long time for your title to switch I believe. I don't know about exact post counts though. But I do know a certain number of posts will make your color change on the bottom, your star count go up and your title change.

I'm looking at them now and they don't fit really because there are more titles than stars

So here's how it goes:

0 (one star)fluffy bunny
5 (one star) fledgling
50 (two stars) Innocent Bystander
100 (three stars) Captain of Commotion
250 (four stars) Major Disruption
500 (Five stars) Minion of Mayhem
1,000 (Five Stars) Commander of Confusion
2,000 (five Stars) General Pandemonium
3,000 (six stars) Chief of disorder

Definitely weird.  And Reb should have 5 stars according to that.

could the stars also factor in the average of posts per day? Because Rebby has more posts than me but her daily average is lower. She averages 2.2ish a day and I'm at 3.6 ish a day...could that be a part of the overall equation?
