Red Stars?
Pardon my ignorance, but I notice that some BF users have a little red star beside their user names. What is that for?
"Warning - this user is a dweeb & shouldn't be taken seriously?"
"If you need a laugh, read this poster?"
"This turkey'll make you mad enough to see stars?"
"This fool gave us some MONEY!?"
Heck if I know!

Those are for those of us that have contributed to the cost of running the forum.
On the main BF page, where it lists all those online on the bottom, click on a red star for more infox
