A silver border means you are in the top 100 posters. There are others in the same rankings range. If they post more than you, or get a "hit" and amass a large number of flags and stars, they can overtake you and move you down from, say, #99 to #101 and the border goes away.

Nothing personal, Akragon, but I think the star / flag nonsense should be abandoned.
it encourages the posting of rubbish and long threads about rubbish, and we're not junior school children.... are we ? Do we need little rewards ?
Not to deny there are some excellent contributors out there, of course.
