All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

OSDev.org Stars ★★★★★ what do they mean?

Post by zeitue »

I just thought I'd share this bit of information I found.
The stars seen by peoples names in the OSdev.org forum indicate how many posts a user has made.
The following table shows the numbers of posts for each number of stars.
  • 0025 posts - ★
  • 0075 posts - ★★
  • 0150 posts - ★★★
  • 0300 posts - ★★★★
  • 1000 posts - ★★★★★
### Z++; && S++; ###
zeitue is pronounced zeɪtə
