I am fairly new to Field & Stream and have yet to get my second star. For those of you that have five stars, how long did it take you to get there?

It's no great thing to get there unless you're like myself where a majority do not like my point of view. It's kind of like corporate America. Just agree with everyone, don't question anyone, and kiss as much a$$ as you can, and you too can be a five star F&S general in no time. If you like the rocky path to it follow my lead and do the opposite.

All of mine came from posting answers. I'm kind of a Yankee know it all so it only took a year but its meaningless. It just means I post a lot. There is a lot of good advice on here so there's that. Plus and minuses only count for 10 but you get 100 every time you answer a question. I have never tested anything so getting to five star was pointless but the info is useful

Don't know about the rest of you, but my input is so revered, DEP delivered a Win M70 with a Leupold VX III 3.5X10 in .270 Win with a hard case and a case of 130gr ammo!
When you finally get that 5th star, if you always give good advice, DEP hizself will contact you to ask your preferred calibre!
(snort, snicker, chortle!)

I never even knew there were stars listed inside the profile.
It reminds me of the days in first and second grade inside Catholic school. The holy nun or sister would place a gold sticker star on top of your homework or test score.
Field and Stream reminds me of those holy sisters and nuns with their little golden reward stars. There also both worth the same amount in value.

Just enjoy the site and be respectful to others here. There is a huge amount of knowledge here which is free for the taking. I always weight what I read carefully but I still learn new things all the time. I also try to not bash anyone here in the answer section because there are other places much more proper for that. I also try to not get off color with my answers because a lot of the readers are of a tender age. Stars and points are merely a rough way to judge how active and how long a person has been on this site.

Santa offers good advice. All kidding aside, I would add that you shouldn't get hung up on boosting your count and only post when you have something to add to the conversation. There are several people on here who got their stars with posts like, "I don't know, I've never tried it."
