True true...not that there's anything wrong with OT I guess. I just don't feel the need to post there. I think I may have 10-12 posts in there...if that. I'd rather talk cars/trucks/problems

guys like steve, rom, tani and myself with "high" post counts are the kind of guys that actually post in THEIR sections and are hardly in off topic, and give alot of time into the sections that matter,,,

so if i mention stars in this discussion am i ot or is this whole discusion even ot?
That last reply was meant only to have an effect on my star count. (Haha) I just noticed that I have one star and the person who asked about the stars, has one star but we have different sub titles or nicknames or labels (whatever they are). Do these change as you climb the log entree ladder? Like I have one star and I'm a back seat driver, now will I keep my one star and advance my title or do people just get diff. tites?

RE: whats up with the stars
I have no idea... someone pointed it out to me months back.
the whole thing with OT IMO is it's a waste of time for alot of those who post there... get rid of the post count if you ask me and alot of the crap posts disappear.
Personally, i'd rather post OT threads in the forums where I know the people better. makes for better conversation...

No if you scroll down more on the "Forums" page there are several more areas to post and "Off Topic" is one of them. They are saying that if you post in off topic to discuss how hot Jessica Simpson is that it should not count towards your tally as alot of people on here use that to determine your level of knowledge. So if you had 100 posts and only one of them was actually in the 2nd Gen Forum that the other 99 you posted about Jessica shouldn't count as they are irrelevant to what most people post here.

RE: whats up with the stars
you only have 1 star.. so i dont think anyone cares about your dumb single star... puney single start poster.. j/k
i cant WAIT till the season starts.. espeically when i start to use my SEASONS TICKETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i agree with steve.. i wish they would do away with the central OT and let us post OT topics in here.. id rather argue/bull**** with you wierdo's instead of the weirdos in OT that I dont even know.. but then again it the OT posts in here would have to be kept to a minimum... too many OT posts in here would flood out regular tech posts
i was the one that mentioned the tech cert. banner to you steve.. lol. remember? i said congrats and asked you if you had to take a test or something?
i think Admin puts it on there since promotion to Mod is mainly based on knowledge base of your section.. which would explain the tech cert.. Admin should really have a FAQ section for the way the starts posts and stuff works .. im sure alot of other people..especially newbs..would be curious
the only draw back to this season is that my team switched to the most ugly friggen jerseys in the world.. and a new version of the mascot.. so now i gotta go out and buy a NEW jersey [:@]
