Yeah, thought about this, prior to the change, it was simple, top user list had everyone's rank in convenient descending order...I used saves to try to kick 49'ers over the top, to get the jump on the shouts.....cause it's nice like that....

*quality idea Deano, It would be nice if we had an automatic notice bar or something for those who move up in star or diamond status.

Awarding Deano with one star point for this contribution to Sift Talk - declared quality by gorgonheap.

You can still sort the "top users" page by star points. The gold/silver divide is on page 5.
Or did I misunderstand?

So far, those approaching milestones are:
winkler1: 247 (almost a diamond)
farcrafter: 97 (approaching 100)
Consitutional Patriot and aidos are approaching gold at 44
(koshmar was gold, but due to inactivity/deaded posts is down to 49)
and there are lots of sifters on the edge of bronze-dom: chorlton, qruel, cryptographix,tracon,kingbob337,enfranc65, to name a few...
so keep an eye out!

(my apologies if I missed anyone...)
