The more reviews you make, the more stars you get. This does not count posts anywhere else besides the literary forums, and does not count new topics.

Below is a listing of the stars you will receive per number of reviews:

For Yellow Stars:

    5 Reviews = 1 Star
    25 Reviews = 2 Stars
    75 Reviews = 3 Stars
    150 Reviews = 4 Stars
    250 Reviews = 5 Stars


For Blue Stars:

    350 Reviews = 1 Blue Star, 4 Yellow Stars
    450 Reviews = 2 Blue Stars, 3 Yellow Stars
    550 Reviews = 3 Blue Stars, 2 Yellow Stars
    And so on and so forth


For Red Stars:
    850 Reviews = 1 Red Star, 4 Blue Stars
    950 Reviews = 2 Red Stars, 3 Blue Stars
    And so on and so forth


At 1,250 reviews, you max out with 5 red stars. If a lot of people start hitting that in the future (doubtful methinks... 1,250 reviews is A LOT), we can start adding purple stars or something like that.

The above system enables new users to gain stars relatively quickly, but rewards those who review over a longer period of time.

Wow, that's crazy. You'd have to be an avid reader and skillful critique artist to get 5 red stars!

I wonder if anyone will get that many red stars. 1250 is a lot.

Snoink and Suzanne have both passed 1250! I think Snoinkus is almost at 2000 O.O
