I can't figure it out and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. Since I am asking dumb questions today how about the meaning behind: pro, expert, champion also?

Can't tell you until you have at least 3 and one has to be red.

The stars designate your post count with different colors representing different number (like roman numerals).  Based upon your post count, I suspect green stars equate to 25 posts, so after you pass 75 posts you should have 3 green stars.  Once you pass 100 you will drop down to one star of a different color.

I think pro, expert, etc. is also based upon post count.

BTW, I turned off my post count, thus no number, stars or designation.

That's what got me curious. I thought it had to do with post count but the taking notice of the stars and people's count it wasn't making sense. Hadn't thought of different colors. Thanks

It's a direct indication of how productive you are at work as well as how likely you are to get fired during the next round of layoffs.  

So, in many ways you want to have as few stars as possible.

I think there is a legend somewhere, but I couldn't find it.

 

Made one up I think is right:


5000 = 5000

2000 = 2000

1000 = 1000

500 = 500

100 = 100

25 = 25

As an example:
8957 is 5000200010005001001001001002525
