Post appreciations. The “star” thing. There are undoubtedly some for whom the star count is important. It gets your name up in the MVP list etc etc. The purpose of the star is to give appreciation to those who contribute. It also marks posts as significantly informative or helpful. So, by all means, give stars. Again, we do not get paid to do this, so appreciation is, appreciated. You can not give yourself one
Here are some simple rules/questions for giving a star. Did the person who posted a solution, or clarified some concept truly help? Did it make a difference? Are you happy/grateful/more knowledgeable? Give a star.
Was the person patient, polite, AND gave a useful answer? Give a star.
Was the information so helpful, that you want to pass it on to others? Definitely give a star. Posts with stars do get attention.
