What do the golden stars next to some members names mean?

[Imyman]

I'm still relatively new at xda devs....and I'm still trying to find my bearings with all of this. Im not even sure if this question is being posted on the right board. lol. Apologies if its not. Just wondering what the golden stars next to some members names mean? Is it like their accuracy with problems handled and solved or complexity of problems worked on or something like that? Or is it just their tenure with the community? And what is the difference between a junior member, member or a senior member? How do you become one of those? Ofcourse I'm interested in knowing :p

Thanks in advance.

Just a sign that they donated money to xda-devs (http://forum.xda-developers.com/donations.php).

Stars have nothing to do how accurate someone is ;)

Hmm.....yes of course I knew tht! :o I was just checking to see if you knew!! lol jp. So what does a senior member mean? How do you become one?

It's just a post count thing like junior -> member
a senior only has more psots, doesn't mean he/she is alway right ;)
