How can some people here get to be Elite Members in under 1 month with 100 posts only.

I really dont get it there are others like me who been here for 3-4 years and still dont have Elite Membership.

to give you an example check this guy here: http://mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/164222/page/1

he joined 30 days ago, he has 110 posts but hey he is an Elite Member.

Next thing he will win 1-2 computers from the contests here.

This doesnt smell right to me

    It represents the frequency of your posts.

    You can have 10.000 posts and have 1 star if you only post once a month.

    You can have 20 posts and be an elite member if you post every 10 hours for example.

    Anyway, I don't notice them usually, but it represents the frequency of posting, not the amount.

    Trade in material assumptions for spiritual facts and make permanent progress.

    Of course! Doesn't everyone hate those empty spots where you should fit a star into! I just hate seeing them empty.

    I think it works like this.

    Each day you log in you get 1 point, if you do not login for one day you lose one point.

    Each post gives you one point. ( If the post fulfills the criteria, no points for one-liners )

    You can get no more then 5 points each day.

    So, 20 days as a minimum to go from new user to elite.

    If anything that guy is a slacker.. ;)

     /edit

    In fact, elite is 80 points, so 16 days as a minimum.

    Indeed; our star system is pretty complex, but it means that it's not just about spamming 1 word posts :)
