The starter ribbon only appears for the member who started a thread, and is not displayed for those who respond to someone else's thread.

Unlike many other forums, we don't display membership levels based on number of posts next to a member's avatar. Instead we award trophies for a variety of reasons including number of posts. You can see a member's trophies by clicking on his name, then on the number of trophy points. There's an option to view the the complete list of possible trophies.

Thanks for the helpful responses, I understand now
1. Who is usually considered a starter in a scientific research project?
In a scientific research project, a starter is typically considered to be the person who initiates the project and takes on the main responsibility for its design, execution, and analysis. This is often the principal investigator or lead researcher.
2. Can someone who is not a scientist be considered a starter in a research project?
Yes, it is possible for someone who is not a scientist to be considered a starter in a research project. This can happen if the project is a collaborative effort and the non-scientist plays a crucial role in the project's initiation and development.
3. Is the starter always the first author on a scientific paper?
No, the starter is not always the first author on a scientific paper. The first author is typically the person who made the most significant contribution to the research and writing of the paper, regardless of their role in initiating the project.
4. Can two or more people be considered starters in a research project?
Yes, it is possible for two or more people to be considered starters in a research project. This can happen if the project is a joint effort and multiple people played crucial roles in initiating and developing the project.
5. How important is the role of the starter in a research project?
The role of the starter in a research project is very important as they are responsible for setting the direction and goals of the project and ensuring its successful execution. However, the contributions of all team members are essential for the overall success of the project.
