The + means there is a new post. The ''weird'' one means its a hot topic. Like he^^ said just put your mouse over them.

As Dirtfather said, hover your mouse over it and it'll give a short sweet and to-the-point definition of what the symbol means.

But..........I have another question, and it's related to the topic, so here goes:

Why is it that in the Halo 3 forum one of lukem's stickies has the gold septagon on the symbol (denoting an employee posted, as it should) yet Achronos' sticky just has the sticky symbol? And another of lukems stickies has the regular sticky symbol too.

If you're confused about what I'm asking, just check out the Halo 3 forum stickies. Any explanation would be appreciated.

I would think that because the employee posted it, it does not get the septagon, just the rebgular sticky. I think that only comes up when an employee posts in an already made thread.

Right.

Golden Septagons show up when a yellow-text staffer replies to a thread, not necessarily when they create one.
