Yeah seriously what is up with the whole barnstar giving thing All the barnstars I ve ever received are on my user page all seven of them actually I ve received about two more but I just refused to put those up because they were essentially given by the barnstar giving cabal I ve been here for two and a half years since 12 19 05 and have seven while these users have several dozen in 3 4 months I m not saying that I want a ton of barnstars I m just saying that they lose all value lately The barnstars I received and other old farts too have been for significant work like the checkuser investigation I dug up or the massive clean up I did on a bunch of articles that Redvers found Today though it appears that a barnstar is just because you re a Wikifriend of another user Shrug
