New Site Star Names - Any suggestions?

Posts: 8,272 Money Saving Expert
As some of you will have noticed I've changed the names and number of posts needed to get stars.
This is something I've been meaning to do for a long time. On reading a couple of notes in the new mental health guide thread it acted as a catalyst for the change (though not the cause)
I hope you like them. I've always wanted to change the names more regularly to keep it fresh. I've also increased the number of posts you need to hit some categories; as the sites now more mature.
I'm not sure how long we will keep the new ones for.... so any suggestions for nice sets of titles are more than welcome.
Do remember though - we dont want to show expertise comes with posting as that may confuse newbies into thinking that the person is right (even though they may have 10,000 posts all from the arms!)

EDIT : Woooo Hoooooo, I'm a geeeeeekSometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...0 -

Can't we just have it so that if we like the generic ones, fine, but if we don't, we can make something up ourselves? I really don't like being a super geek at all. :lipsrseal I would rather be a bod or a spoff or a boffin.. if we have to be something like that. Why American ones? Or I'd be happy if I could change it myself and be CompingFiend.. or something...I've been lucky, I'll be lucky again. ~ Bette Davis0

I'd like mine changed to moneysaving pixie please. We could have trolls, pixies, elfs, leprechauns and angels.
I like Haribo's suggestions I wanna be a pixie too, or an elf - we could have pointy ears instead of stars? :cool:
