The stars are a post count thingy, I think. Mine appeared when I reached 100 posts. Increase your stars by posting.

Caryl is a moderator because among others she looks after the forum and makes sure we stick to the rules. Other than that, she's a regular poster here and a helpful person with advice. Caryl also has a nice big pond she keeps us updated with too, see the coldwater section.

Like Caryl said the stars are fairly meaningless,unfortunately some people treat them as medals and sometimes that gives the wrong impression especially to newbies. However in Caryl's case it is a good representation to her dedication to the hobby and her knowledge.

I was the first member so have had more time to post than the rest of you. When Cees first set up the site I was the only one who had access to it for a while as he used me as the guinea pig to see if I could use it, find bugs etc. So I had a head start :wink:

At the time I had never heard, or seen, of forums so he figured if I could follow his instructions, anyone could.
