What does the star next to a Feedback score mean?

Feedback stars are located to the right of a member’s user ID. Stars are awarded based on a member’s Feedback score.

In most cases, members receive:

+1 point for each positive rating
0 points for each neutral rating
-1 point for each negative rating

The more points you get, the higher the “star” level will go.

Here's what the different stars mean:

Yellow star		10 to 49 ratings
Blue star		50 to 99 ratings
Turquoise star		100 to 499 ratings
Purple star		500 to 999 ratings
Red star		1,000 to 4,999 ratings
Green star		5,000 to 9,999 ratings
Yellow shooting star		10,000 to 24,999 ratings
Turquoise shooting star		25,000 to 49,999 ratings
Purple shooting star		50,000 to 99,999 ratings
