What do the little icons next to our forum posts (not the avatar) mean?

There's things like a monkey with a green plus, a monkey with flames, a monkey with an excalamtion mark and a gold septagon.

I'm guessing they have sometthing to do with rank or how long one has been a member...

A green icon indicates a reply was made in the last 30 minutes, a red cross means the thread has been locked, a flame means it is a 'hot topic' (which has generated numerous replies in a short space of time) and, finally, the golden Septagon means a gold texted person (Achronos, Frankie or other Bungie employee) has posted in it.

Monkey with plus sign= someone has replied to it recently (within the hour I believe).

Monkey on fire: popular thread, has 3 or more pages.

Monkey with exclamation mark: Sticky. So it's a thread of "importance"

Monkey with forbidden/stop sign: Locked.

Golden Septagon logo: A certain Bungie employee has replied to the topic.

And the bronzed icons represent a thread which has been auto-locked due to old age and inactivity.

Because the Webmaster likes to put his face on everything he can.

I remember the first time I saw a golden Septagon.

That was the day I met Achronos ^_^
