I might be mistaken, as it's been awhile since I referenced it... but I think that the top 50 WATS scores get gold borders and the following 50 get silver.

That can't be it, I have a wats of 94, 20 higher than the OP.

Happens every time I walk out on a limb without looking.

I do appreciate the correction!

A bit of searching led me to This post that explains it. - I'll quote it here.

BRONZE:
The first of our elite levels also triggers the code that removes ads from the discussion board*, the indicator requires at least:
300 posts, 300 stars, and 300 flags.

BRONZE: (exception)
Members with more than 2,000 posts, but less than the other levels for bronze receive the "BRONZE" tag, but still see ads.

SILVER:
The second of our elite levels who see no ads on the board, the indicator requires at least:
400 posts, 500 stars, and 600 flags.

GOLD:
The highest of our elite levels who see no ads on the board, the indicator requires at least:
500 posts, 750 stars, and 1,000 flags.

WATS is basically a calculation combining stars, flags, applause etc..

Karma is for posting..

Yeah, it really stand out, huh. Anyway, if you look at the posts, you'll see a very thin silver border. It took me a long time to notice it on other's posts, myself.

Or I might be delusional and just imagining my lovely border....

Well done!

Now onwards and upwards to gold.

Peace

And reading the standards I just posted, I see that they are outdated as well....

I got nothing. It involves sacrificing goats and which way chicken bones land when thrown into the air by an old man in a trance while men in robes chant in Latin.

I used PurpleChiten as my sacrifice. I aligned his bones to the galatic center, then walked backwards in a circle five times chanting, "Rock 'em sock 'em roboBOTS!"

It worked....right?

Congratulations!

Well deserved.

Looks like I should have the bronze (exception) one but I guess the game is for higher stakes these days.

Holy crap! I never even noticed those. I remember the gold and silver contributor thing, but didn't know they changed it to this.

It should be thicker, like a lavish picture frame.

What do I gotta do to get a Hot Pink border? People with kitties should qualify for special borders too!
Waaaa!

That's easy - instead of the goat, just sacrifice a flamingo instead. Oh, and instead of Latin, have the men in hoods just sing either showtunes or a Bette Midler medley.

I've been looking at this website for 3+ years, very rarely missing a day, and have never noticed these colored borders.

Awesome! I am all over it.

Thanks Heff, you are now my "go to" guy for ritual sacrifice!

Congrats.

Now, to gold..

Were you demoted to silver recently? I could have sworn you were on the gold standard previously...

Congrats. You wear it well.

I'm embarrassed to say that I haven't noticed the borders until now either. Wow, I am not very observant, am I?

I think the borders are great, but I doubt I'll every post enough to earn one. Congratulations!!!
