Thread: Funny Gold Star Thingy . . .

    Default Funny Gold Star Thingy . . .

    Well troops, I noticed a new strange gold star on my posting page, the silver bars are gone . . . I guess that means I am buying in the bar! Cheers to all! Even the elves are tipping a few . . .

    It's about time the paperwork got through.
    Congratulations, David. Hopefully, the elves are good with cleaning up a OC after a riotous party

    Looking very good, Dave!

    Well done.

    PS: The things I learn on this site from happenstance is amazing. Like the history of US rank insignia.

    United_States_Air_Force_officer_rank_insignia

    And for the full story on the Gold/Silver thing:
    United_States_Army_officer_rank_insignia

    So, not a star thingy, Dave, but a leaf.

    Cheers on your promotion Dave. With the pay raise that comes with it you'll be able to afford hiring another elf or two!

    I believe the rank relates to the number of years you have been a member of the forums.

    Actually, rank reflects the number of posts you have made. Note Flying Officer Kyte's exalted rank

    Well done on achieving another major milestone in your carreer. A major achievement and well deserved. The major(ity) of which comes from your leadership of your tireless band of frenetic builders, namely the Elves. Who deserve a medal themselves.

    Well done and let me stand you a drink in your honour and lot's of little tipples for the Elves.
    See you on the Dark Side......
