I've satisfied all the requirements to enter the Blue Building except for the 100 forum posts. I thought there used to be a section in the dashboard settings that would show me how many forum posts I've made, but I'm not seeing it now. Is there any counter on the number of forum posts a user's made? I'm hoping I'm just missing it. I really just want to see how far off I am.

Side question: is there a guide to those little stars that appear under a user's name in the forums? I know they're related to how many forum posts a user has made, but what's the threshold for receiving those stars?

Thanks in advance everyone - have a Happy Lumi!

just below your HA it shows how many posts you have, there are two rectangles with hearts in them and it says zero right now for you (because starting a topic doesn't count). You can also find this on your userpage in the same block that has your username/gender/join date etc.

You get one star under your username in Forums for every 750 posts. Some places do count for Raffle Tickets but don't count for total number of posts. I forget which is which.

I thought the number under a post was the post's likes, maybe? I've never used the feature myself. It definitely wasn't here 10 years ago, lol. But the posts are definitely listed in the Extra Userinfo section - I had to add it but I'm seeing 37 there now. Long way to go but not as bad as I thought!

Thanks so much for your help! ❤

you can see your post count by hovering over your username. you currently have 39. it did used to be listed beneath the avatar but they moved it to... save space i guess? you're right that the number there refers to post likes.

Thank you! I can't believe it's been staring me in the face the whole time, I feel a little silly that I didn't think to look there.
