if the mods are reading this, can we also have more avatar wardrobe options. i know we can create our own, but I can't be bothered to work out how. Can we have some bunny ears and some other coloured tops - ooh and maybe a bag or something??

Maybe the mods thought you would use the button irresponsibly Wal

This is a shocking revelation! - I mean, if several people don't have the helpful user buttons appear, then of course I only have 2 stars!! I am outraged, well nearly, I will be outraged after a cup of tea!

if you are teh OP, its next to the 'send PM' button on each person's post

I don't mind the empty feeling - feel free to click me as helpful user :p

only the OP can decide who is helpful (which I think is floored). You have been very helpful Wal - especially for pointing out I should do some work rather than watch films - it was really the result I was looking for :-s

ok, I'm living with my mother in law who, although does not work and has a kid at school, STILL employs a cleaner, while she seemingly spends all day on ebay or sleeping in bed. I would much rather the house was filthy than the cleaner was here!

1.05 hoover started

I think in order to award you a star, then you should do the same to me on your star related thread. I was really hoping the films would come out top, but then I would struggle to find an appropriate film, as I have watched them all through many times. The cleaner is in my room though, so work may have to wait until she has finished hoovering under my chair for 4 HOURS.

Had an awful day (week) so far. Have done no actual work at all, just stared at my computer, made some commotion on another forum by insulting people which was highly amusing, and have made and eaten lunch. I just feel in such a slow lethargic mood and don't feel like I can get anything done.

hmm, I should be on 3 stars if you look at my number of posts and Wal's which means I am less helpful :-(

***Sneaks thinks maybe if she makes a false profile and awards herself stars everyone will think she is the master of postgradforum!***

ooh pick me, pick me!!!

hmm I was thinking about this too - I think maybe there are less posters giving helpful user clicks - or I am just not very helpful. Which has damaged my self esteem and I am now going to sue (is that how you spell it!?) postgradforum for ruining my life and PhD due to lack of stars
