Default Lifetime Gold Star test

I signed up for the lifetime supporting membership earlier today and don't see the gold stars showing up in my postbit area. So I'm posting this message to see if that indicator is not made retroactive in prior posts. If it DOES NOT show up in this post, what has to happen before it does start showing up?

Well, I don't see the gold stars yet......

Is this something that the admin has to do manually? vBulletin should do this all automatically..........

Think it has to do with when the payment is received and then when Troy or an Admin does an update. Guess it can take a few days sometimes.

If you paid by Paypal and credit card, it should be automatic an almost immediate.

If you paid by Paypal and bank account, the system waits until the check clears and then is automatically done. This takes about a week.

However, there has been some technical issues lately. Please give the method you used to pay and when. I will forward this to the admins for updating.
