Stravinsky, you have two green thingys. I think it has something to do with the number of posts. You have over a thousand, compared to Big Pete, who has less than 500. If you put the cursor on the green thingys, you get your fortune told!

So much for the number of posts theory. Posted this and realized that I two have only one green thingy. As soon as I stop crying, I'll look for a reason. But that may take a week or two.

It is wierd, I only had one when I made that post, but now I have 2. It should be linked to the amount of reputation you have received, but as there are people on here with less reputation than me with more green things, I'm at a loss to explain

If you look at jojo yes i know she is a good looker but ignoring that for a few seconds and look at her Greeny reading she has 2 and she is only a whippersnapper in the scale of time on the forum

So cant be due to postings as in numbers must be some other reason ,anyone answer how exactly it works ?

I don't think there are many people who know what the green thingys are for, how you give or get them, or anything about them at all. If we are going to trade them, then they don't mean much anyway. They don't mean much if people don't know what they are, either.

To me, they will still just be the green thingys, meaninglessly hanging out in my stats.

Hi Pete, thanks for asking the question about the green thingys. I have wondered what they are since I joined the forum and no doubt loads of others have also. At least now we know what they, even if we don't know how to use them.

I thought I would have a try to see if I could work out how to give some more green thingys. Synthia you got one from me, but Pete it wouldn't let me give you one. Sorry

Michelle
