I see lots of people with only one post, that are classified as "First Timer", while many others, again with only one post, are classified as "New Member". "New Member" and "Junior Member" classifications don't appear to really have a clear delineation in the number of posts, but it looks like it might happen in the 14 - 15 range.

Then there is no information about the number of stars.

The number of little "lights" is not very straightforward, either. There are a number of members with dozens, even hundreds, and at least one with THOUSANDS, with only a single grey (un-illuminated?) indicator. I've also found a "New Member" with a while string of green lights - something that I'd have thought might take a while "career" to achieve - with only 13 posts.

So, I'm back to wondering: What's it all mean?

Can a moderator fill in the gaps?

Thanks, again.

If you use the members list, and order them by reputation, the first 6 entries are all moderators, and they all have assigned maximum reputation points to themselves. That is why you can have max reputation with only 13 posts.

Also, a couple of those names are aliases used by moderators for particualr posts or threads. THey only used them a couple times, so there are low post counts, but high reputation, because they were asigned.

Some members in the past said that they manipulated other accounts as well, and I do not know. I know they could, but if they did or not I will not say. Also, they have the ability to look into or monitor all activity including private messages, but again, just because they can, does not mean they do.

This was a source for some unhappiness in the past. Some of the moderators are very sensitive to anyone speaking about some of the things they may or may not have done, and this will likely get this thread shut down if I post more. (They can and have also modified other people's posts as well)

So, good luck on your quest. I will be happy to speak to you and answer any questions that I can (I don'y have hardly any more information) but not on the public forum. Send me a private message if you wish.

Glide more, smile more.
