Hi,

maybe I'm being stupid, but I've completely failed to find anywhere on the site which gives an explanation of all the different icons/stars/points etc used on this forum. Can you give me a pointer.

Cheers,

Mick.

The stars are ratings for the post (if it has been rated at all).

The bars under your avatar show your bracket position regarding the forum posters wrt # of posts, e.g. top 100, top 50, etc.

I'm new too.  What does it mean to "verify" and answer on a discussion forum?

It means that if you indicate in creating the post that you're asking a question for people to answer, people can suggest responses as answers and you can approve the ones you think are actually answers.
