New How Many Stars Should Be Displayed On Profiles?

[Octavia]

It looks good like on your current profile (5)

Anyway, if everyone likes the 5 star look, we can keep that. I kind of prefer the smaller stars, anyway. At the size they were before, they felt a little off-balance when compared to the size of the text and the badges, if you know I mean.

5 has been added as an option to vote for. If anyone interested in that wants to chanrge their vote, then be sure to do that.

You know what... Reading the forum on a mobile I don't actually like the stars....


I can't say I hate them. But the more I look at them and seem them. I can't work out why we go them.

If we have them and keep them maybe make them smaller.

There my unpopular Friday opinion

I don't know if you were browsing the other forum back when it was on vBulletin, but the stars were a much requested feature there because, prior to the migration to Xenforo, they had this star system in place that rewarded stars based on post count. I think they started off as blue and then you'd get another one that would change the colours of the rest the higher your post count got. Even up to 2024, I still had people messaging me about when the stars would come back.

It's just a feature a lot of people in the community really liked back then, and that includes me as well. That's the reason we have them here.

That change I made to fit 5 stars made them smaller for everyone else, but I think they look massive on the mobile version of the site. I'll actually adjust that right now as well.

Ah fair point! Thanks for that.

I did do a screen in previous reply with them a bit smaller.

I'll put up with them then or inject some code locally in my browser session to hide them its ok

No problem!

I adjusted them earlier from 25px to 19px, but I'd probably not make them smaller than that.

I thought you meant on the mobile where they look this big:

Yeah, go for it if you prefer.

5 looks best

5 looks awesome, @Zwielicht I deserve at least 2 Hot Rods for the idea.

For the rest of people, if any of you don't vote for 5 I will go and see what Like I gave you and take it back
