from what i have seen the more stars and less flags = a greater K rating.
Some newb's have a higher K rating than me, but i think only because they have no flags but stars from contibuting to other threads.
So basically it's like you get Karma points for contributing more to other threads than creating your own.
Which does make sense.
Although i think there should also be a rating for how many stars you give other members. I have seen some that wont give any stars but expect many
and then the total opposite as well.
