Have you seen the FAQ section, it's more complex than the GAA's rule-book! It would have been quicker for you to post the answer...

Its related to your post count. I'm not sure of the numbers exactly, but over a certain amount of posts = more stars.

Also moderators have more stars (4 I believe) as default. Admins have five gold stars. Subscribers (like me) have one extra star than normal, and they're pink.

4 silver - moderator

You sure that's not just subcribed moderators? I don't think I've ever had the option.
