Little yellow squares

[Huzo]

Can someone tell me what the little yellow squares next to the name of the poster means ?

No idea at all, but I have more of them than you do. I hope they are not something derogatory!

[HardAspie]

Cool. I thought it may represent how many of my teeth people want to knock out.

[HardAspie]

I bought mine on the black...yellow...ma rket.

[Farmer Dan]

I thought they indicated how many teeth you have

How many deckades you've been wearing red suspenders?

I'm guessing suspenders means something different in your world to what it means in mine. I hope so, anyway.

Ahh, I believe you would call them braces..

One square for every 100 folks who have put you on their "ignore" list?

[wymple]

You guys with 5 squares are just being greedy.

[kirby1923]

Ahh, I believe you would call them braces.. 

Or as my grandfather called them "Galluses" but then he was a A&M man (as in Aggie).

[Groover]

I never noticed those.... now that's all I can see!

Dang! You have ESP.

From a post made to answer a similar question on the Simple Machines forum (this board runs Simple Machines software):

The colour of the square is attached to the group the user is in.

For instance on this forum, you've made 1 post. On a default installation, 1 post puts you in to the Newbie group (less than 10 posts I think it is, could be wrong), and that's one yellow pip. Higher groups have more pips.

On a default installation, 5 red pips for administrator, 5 blue pips for global moderator, 5 green pips for board moderator and 1-5 yellow pips for post counts.

This is all configurable in the admin panel; here for example my badge (SMF Friend) is configured through exactly the same system attached to my group (SMF Friend)

If a black square shows up you know you're on the moderators $&@? List!

I won't even blow your mind with the Mayan, St John or "Continental Operative" (ConOp) sights I look in on.

Yeah... no, you don't wanna go there. Some rabbit holes are best left unilluminatied. Oh yes, I did!

 Meh , I lurk on that site occasionally , get a kick out of the fact that the recent thread attacking me had more replies than an other recent topic . Glad to give them something to discuss

Well, I'll tellya what. I had very few of those little yellow squares and then I did, suddenly. And that very night I was abducted by UFO aliens whose vehicle looked amazingly like a Tatra 815 10X10. Just sayin'.

[Sasquatch Jim]

  I figure they are just a measure of how opinionated I have become, measured by counting posts.
 It has taken me 13 years' maybe 14, to get that opinionated on this site.  I have even had to re-register
 a number of times because of system crashes.  Once I was the first one to re - register but the system crashed again in about a day and I was way down the line when I finally got back on.

[dan_s]

It would be nice if they had little square pants

[Bottler]

If it is a measure of one's remaining teeth (tooth) than it is accurate!

[Penderic]

Could be just how cheesy are you?!

[Huzo]

So no one knows then..

[PJPR01]

Well Actually, they are yellow squares in the southern hemisphere and red squares in the northern hemisphere.

Is it just me, or do I see the start of a Ruben here??
