I would never show my status, but I do like people who do. Gets kind of obvious who is a regular when someone is sitting with platinum VIP level and kind of solid stats. I prefer to be unknown vs people I have never met.

To be honest I rarely see any good players show it. What is the point? To give away information to everyone at the tables?

Nope - don't believe in giving away information for free.

I'm not a high volume player so no one has thousands of hands on me. Some have a few hundred but that's it, I'm constantly seeing lots of new players at 25nl that I have no hands on. Only 12 people have more than 300 hands on me, with the highest having less than 800 and he's fairly nitty anyway.

I recently turned mine on and now proudly display my bronze star! Come and get some

if I was a bronze star i'd show it lol

i love ppl who show it..
by default(25NL) about ppl who show their status:
bronze: fish
silver: fish knows smth about starting hands. could be 10NL player moving up or low volume 25NL player
gold: Might be somewhat decent, might be 18/3 fish

Yes as I'm bronze star so I'm sure it can't hurt for some people to give me less respect
