I miss the stars you used to get back in the old days, I really wanted the red ones.
If your old school you'll know what I mean, otherwise you wont.
Anyone else miss them?

    My ex-boss out here decided it would be a positive step if we awarded collegues at work with gold stars as a sign of achievement... I thought it sounded like we were back at play school ;)

    This was quite a high-end job too, we were the support team looking after about 10,000 users and our ex-boss was the overall IT Manager for her team and the business... guess it goes it show :lol:

    I remember I had just got my blue Uber stars and then they changed the boards. Not only did I not have stars anymore I was no longer an Uber poster. It seemed like everybody else's post count went up except mine - I actaully lost posts. :confused:

    I have never had an apology or the offer of a free T Shirt as compensation. :p

    At another forum we had multi colourd stars, and they'd flash and glow and do all sorts of neat things. I'm going to make some :)

    That's what the mods used to have here. None of the Av's. And the boards were a nice blue and white design. Back in the day.

    If you can remember the blue and white you should be able to remember the stars. It all changed at once and was very different for a while. The change happened late 2001 I think?

    I probably wasn't here then. I remember stars from another forum, but they're the same on every forum that uses them.

    Couldn't we have both avatars and stars? If it was like before, I'd be less than 50 posts away from getting a new star... :(
