In honor and appreciation to long time citizens of ActiveWorlds.
Introduction
Star Spangled Rating shows the age of an account in-world. One to three stars are displayed next to the avatar's name in different colors.
Version 7.0 build 1737 added laurel icons for 15+ y/o accounts.
Details
The years are counted as the time since immigration, and an online time of at least 7 days for every counted year.

Changes to a higher rank are reflected in-world after a user logs-in the next time and comes close to your avatar.
Examples
For the current year 2014.
Illustrating that the account age is primary, secondary are the number of weeks spent online. Online time is considered if the value of account age is higher than the count of weeks spent online. This way an account's age is the determination, when weeks spent online reduce the count of displayed stars in case the minimum online time for the account's age has not been met.
An account created in 2008 with 30 days online time:
account age 6 years online time 4 weeks results in a value of 4, showing 1 blue star in world.
An account created in 2008 with 90 days online time:.
account age 6 years online time 12 weeks results in a value of 6, showing 3 blue stars in world.
An account created in 2000 with 25 days online time:.
account age 14 years online time 3 weeks results in a value of 3, showing 3 green stars in world.
An account created in 2000 with 200 days online time:
account age 14 years online time 28 weeks results in a value of 14, showing 1 yellow star in world.
An account created in 1998 with 50 days online time:
account age 16 years online time 7 weeks results in a value of 7, showing 1 red star in world.
An account created in 1998 with 300 days online time results:
account age 16 years online time 42 weeks results in a value of 16, showing 1 white star in world.
So, you see less stars as the account age would be capable of, if the number of online weeks is too low (1 online week per age-year minimum).
You can spend more online time, to get all stars possible by the account's age.
Logic Used
- Verbal description
When an account is older than 1 year, calculate the age of the account in full years. Calculate the count of weeks spent online. The result is the number of 'stars' (AW_CITIZEN_TITLE_STARS, sent to client browsers), as the lower value of account age in years and weeks online.
In other words, the number of 'stars' represents the years since immigration, or the weeks spent online, whatever is the smaller number.
- Display in the client browser
The value of AW_CITIZEN_TITLE_STARS is broken into 5 colors, each color 1 to 3 stars (5 * 3 = 15). See list of colors above. Values higher than 15 are displayed as white star in world.
- Code example for nerds
#define ONE_YEAR 31536000 // 1 year in seconds
#define ONE_WEEK 604800 // 1 week in seconds
uint32 calc_title_stars ()
{
// span: time since account creation
// total_time: time spent in-world (accumulated online time since 2001/2002)
// weeks: online time in weeks
uint32 stars = 0;
uint32 weeks = 0;
time_t span = time(NULL) - aw_citizen_immigration();
time_t total_time = aw_citizen_total_time();
if (span >= ONE_YEAR) {
stars = span / ONE_YEAR;
if (total_time)
weeks = total_time / ONE_WEEK;
if (stars > weeks)
stars = weeks;
}
// the value of 'stars' is sent to client browsers
return stars;
}
