You may have noticed the stars and titles under your screen name on your posts. These are just for fun and are based purely on your number of posts. They are no indication of your culinary skills whatsoever!

Stars are "awarded", based on number of posts, as follows:
Trainee Chef - 1 star - zero posts
Chef - 2 star - 50 posts
Head Chef - 3 Star - 100 posts
Indian Master Chef - 4 Star - 250 posts
Spice God - 6 star - 500 posts
Curry Spice Master - 7 star - 800 posts
Elite Curry Master - 8 stars - 1000 posts
Ive Had Way to Much Curry - lots of stars - 1500 posts
For example, you need 500 posts to be a "Spice God" with six stars ;D
The colours of the stars mean nothing; they are chosen at random for member groups (e.g. "admin", "moderator", etc)
