And also where do they come from.

And what does it all mean?

Thank you in advance,
Love, Lou.

IDK but it comes up on their avatars toward the bottom in the same color as a mod/admin designation.

A briefer summary;
The trophies are an accumulative points system, a calculation based on the number of posts and the number of stars and flags received.
The lightning bolts are a similar system, but with the crucial difference that the formula includes dividing by the number of posts. So that number tends to stay low, because making a lot of posts that don't receive stars can pull it down. Every new member begins with 20, which can be reduced to 1 after only 20 posts.
The first is supposed to show the people who make threads which win the approval of others, the second shows those who make individual posts which win the approval of others.
So comparing your figures with mine, I probably write threads more frequently, but your individual posts must have a better average of stars. Something as high as 43 is not common, if you look around.

The trophy is your WATS [ Way Above Top Secret ] score.
The lighting bolt is your Karma level.
Rest your cursor on each and it will tell you.

All you have to do is look at the 19 million stars for the guy who wrote it to know that it's broken and ATS doesn't care to fix it, so what difference does it make?

Now if ATS actually fixed it so it works, then it might be worth your trouble to read the novel, after getting a math degree to understand the formulas.
