Moderators have 4(?) blue stars.


Posting to settle the question.

Edit: Yep, moderators have four blue stars.

You become a "friend" by proving your worth as a poster.

If you are a friend, you get the decoder ring, badge, and a shoe telephone to identify you to other APS Friends and keep you in contact with us. You are also enslaved to the MikeIrwin, carrying out his every command.

Plus you get to blame fistful for everything.
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

I could fairly easily change this, as it would just require a few minutes tinkering with the forum settings, but I figure why bother.

Typical Obama supporter -- just waiting for the govt to change the stars for you. :P  :laugh:

Everyone gets to blame fistful.  In fact, isn't that a requirement of membership?  I vaguely remember signing a pledge or something.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I went from one star to three, overnight.  Very cool.  But I'm sure it wasn't because of that despicable Brad Johnson.

They don't have a meaning, but they're there to boost our self-esteem.  I feel better about myself just thinking about it!

It also provides entry to another dimension. A dimension of sight, sound, and mind. It lies between the pit of Manedwolf's fears, and summit of Irwin's anger. This is the area of the imagination. An area we call - the Banschwerk Zone.

No, the Irwin redistributed the stars. That's right, I'm more powerful. Where's your president now, Moses?
