    The best way to achieve maximum forum stars in the shortest period of time is to just be yourself . Lower your sodium intake and drink plenty of refreshing water . Do not speak to people like they are faceless entities but how you would in person with as much politeness as possible , especially during heated topics . Limit your posting on topics that upset you and do not be afraid to show your love of the game as well as your criticisms . That's how you go from zero to 10 in one year . One day you may actually meet a fellow player and do not want embarrassing forum regrets ruining the positive experience . Happy posting OP .

    10 stars is 10,000 pts
    9 stars-8,000 pts
    8 stars - 6,000 pts
    And those are the more recent ones I remember, points coming from reactions + badges(worth varying numbers of points)

    @Rohamad_Ali Don’t forget to tell them about the magic word that grants a 50% increase in forums XP. Salami!

    To be honest, I think @Rohamad_Ali or @Vaoh were the first people to obtain 10 stars on these forums. Them or @Joy_Division I think. It had to be 1 of those 3. Just had to.

    Wasn't me! I'm kind of curious now that you mention it.
    It's sad the update ZOS devotes to performance improvements has degraded Cyrodiil to lows not seen since the Infamous "Lighting Patch"" of June 2014.

    No no no I came much later. I got my 10 stars a few months ago. There were others who had it before me.

    I'd probably have more if I hadn't quit for nearly a year. I was even late to the forum party by not knowing the forums existed for the first year or two. I'd also have more but I've had a quite a few agrees and awesomes deleted by the no fun police.

    Yes, I do heartily repent. I repent I had not done more mischief; and that we did not cut the throats of them that took us, and I am extremely sorry that you aren't hanged as well as we.

    If by "outspoken", you mean baity with a style fit for tabloids, sure. But it works for farming Awesomes, and I suppose there is a reason why that sort of thing has proliferated in our media landscape.

    I wish the forums weighed Insightful more than the others.
    I try, I mean when not messing about or trash posting I spend a lot of time helping others yet you find people never use insightful when they actually learn something or someone helps them.

    I personally try to give them when someone beats me to helping or when they teach me things.

    More seriously, I do keep several images I've found useful for multiple topics bookmarked, such as Isriana's TES comics, a couple XKCD comics, a thread necromancy meme I made, and the full box cover that has the "Play The Way You Life" tagline on it. I bookmark certain guides like Joy_Division's Maelstrom and Midyear Mayhem guides so I can point other players to the resources that helped me. I also have the TOS and Code of Conduct bookmarked, because the old "So this is what you agreed to when you signed the terms" thing comes up fairly often around here.

    So I guess that's one recommendation I'd make for anyone who finds themselves posting on similar topics again and again. If you have sources that you find yourself returning to again and again, bookmark them so its easier for you to find them when you want to include them in a post.

    What are the parameters to be upgraded to another star level? I have been fairly active, and yet, I am stuck at 3 stars. Getting to 4 stars feels like the difference between getting from lvl 1-10 and VR1-VR12 in the old school days.

    Why do people even care about something so absolutely pointless o.O I wouldn't give a damn if i had 1 star of 20 stars. It doesn't affect or change my life in the slightest. I don't mean to personally attack your or anything at all, I'm just simply baffled.

    I'm starting to question everything social media do to people these days ._.

    But to actually answer: I have no idea lol.
