Ha! Fair question and thanks for asking. 8)
And look on the bright side .. it affects EVERYONE when the levels move, and not just you.
(In fact take a screen capture of your shooting Red Star you
NOW have, as that will change soon.

)
Folks go up, down and sideways ..... me included of course.
These colour stars are fairly similar to the ebay ratings, so I thought folks here might like them for a bit of fun.
Of course the ever changing issue is
WHERE to set the new cut-off level.
Being a new board I've changed the cut-off level about a dozen times already, as more and more members have started posting, and we have quite a lot now well into 3 figure post counts.
A fortnight or so back we had
no-one with a 3 digit post count! I think Red Shooting Star was only 50 posts and if I recall
Simon Dunkerley was the first one to get there.
So far this is where they are at (subject to change at
any moment!)
Total Newbie! 1 (Gold)
Junior Stamp Boarder 2 (Blue)
Green Star Superstar! 5 (Green)
Well Advanced Stamper 10 (Mauve)
RED Star Member! 25 (Red)
Turquoise Heavy Poster 50 (Turquoise)
GOLD Posting Freak! 100 (Gold Shooting)
Turquoise Stamp Addict 150 (Turquoise Shooting)
RED Star Posting Freak! 250 (Red Shooting)
Mauve Star Posting LEGEND! 500 (Mauve Shooting)
I've made
over 40,000 posts on travel Bulletin boards just like this, and have a very good handle on these kind of things, and what works, and what does not - IMHO.
scurralous is our largest poster and he most deservedly is alone on:
That said, I may move up
RED Star Posting Freak! to 300 or 350 very shortly and make minor adjustments with others. This will not make me popular with
crosscrescent as he is sitting right on about 250, but he may get it for a few days at least.
In fact I might even entirely change the colour order on a few as for instance
RED Star Posting Freak! should be the very highest star, and be
Red Star LEGEND, as you only get that on ebay after
100,000 feedbacks I understand, and I really wonder if anyone has ever got up that high there?
The reason for very fast changes for new members is just to get folks into the habit of posting a little, and seeing their star rating change.
After 10 posts you've gone though 4 star levels right now. 8)
That's the logic behind it all, and any input is appreciated. The names of the levels can be changed at will too.
After a while of course the levels will be fixed in stone, and not need changing.
But for a brand new board we have to be a bit flexible, and move gradually with the flow.

Further Admin Edit - Rankings as at November2009
=============
July 2010 - A bit of tinkering to the star levels above 1000 due to the many new, and active established posters we have lately!
===
Did a bit of tweaking of the Stars, and this is the current state of play at Jan 1, 2011 -
=================
And of our 5th Birthday the levels were tweaked once again as seen below!
Well we seem to be getting heaps of members setting new milestones lately, so I have decided on a long overdue tweak of the Star Bauble levels.
We have 14 members over 20,000 posts, 7 members over 50,000, and 5 over 80,000 posts!
