    I don't know. I signed on one day to find it under my name. Someone else on here that sounded like they knew what they were talking about said it had to do with the number of best answers received in one particular category. It's a mystery to me, I really don't like having it under my name, like some sort of brag I didn't ask for. But so far, I've received no replies from Yahoo toward my requests to remove it.

    LOL MrOrange - It's all yours :).

    HCWill: Sorry, that can't be it either. I tend to leave some of the longest answers in this forum. I try to cut it short, but I do tend to run on :(.

    It's a badge for those who answer (Yup), (No) and (Huh) to questions.

    What's this rush for points anyway? All you get is an "orange atta boy" under your icon. It's not like your answers were constructive or informative. Just short.
