    Noone.

    Its an automated thing. The only way you'll get a fifth star right now is ifthey change the requirments.

    Seems when the Lounge posts were set to count again and the board was set to recalculate post counts some members came up with a lower number for some reason. This could be do to posts left from IPB or just a glitch. I could easily give you the fifth star back by just setting your post count to 2,500 although it would be fudging and considering your only a little over 50 posts short of that I think it woulkd be better to just get it back as it will come soon enough anyway. We all know your a great member and you shouldnt stress over it although I agree with you in the fact that its very annoying...

    For me, the real concern isn't of the absence of the 5th star itself, but for the valuable posts which made up that star.

    If there were the requisite number of posts, wtf happened to them?

    Actually no they don't. I used to think they did until I discovered all the BS spamming going on in the lounge.

    Now there's conversations going on such as...

    Post #1
    Post #2
    Post #3 FTW!!!
    Post #4 Hmmm

    Post count should mean something if it's constructive, is what I think you meant to say.
    Yeah, you're right. There should be some sort of witless moron filter to keep these people from posting in there.

    Of course, that would preclude you from making any lounge posts - but ya gotta take the rough with the smooth.

    Of course you're one to judge as you're one of the main contributers to posting nonsense. You can try and single me out every time I say anything about the lounge manker, but the fact remains that you amongst others spam the forum with mindless BS. Deal with it.

    It's an off-topic section.

    Some people post about their lives, some people post interesting interweb things, some people post utter drivel - but everyone posts stuff that they want to talk about. Most of what you see as spam, others see as entertainment.

    Only a witless idiot, such as yourself, wouldn't be able to grasp this simple concept. If you don't like it then don't post there. As to singling you out each time you stereotype people that post in the lounge as idiots - I will continue to do so, same goes for anyone who suggests likewise.

    The fact is that you can't post there very often because you don't have the necessary wit or intelligence to participate properly. That's fine, no-one will hold it against you but there are a lot of very clever members who post in there - far more intelligent than you - to insult them and others with your continual snide comments, which actually only relate to a handful of people, is quite honestly pathetic.

    Why do you keep attacking the lounge folk. I`m sure it say's off topic discussions.
