I've noticed that when you hover over someone's rep points a phrase will appear. "on a distinguished road" and " a reputation beyond repute".

There doesn't seem to be anything after a reputation beyond repute.

I'm thinking, and it may help newbies who may not make the connection between stars and the "progress bar" that anyone who has attained star status should have their own phrase.

Something like "so and so has ascended to the realm of the Aquarium Gods", or "member x is a Fish Buddha", or "...is a Fountain of Fish Knowledge."

There are several things that stop eventually. Thread count, for instance. Mine stopped at 500 probably 2 years ago. It depends on the software, I imagine, and how much can be rewritten.

Yes, I thought it was likely a site feature, as I've seen the same phrases on other sites.

Just seems a wide gap - somewhat misleading to a newbie that someone like me has the same phrase as someone like yourself with 2 stars...but who knows how much people pay attention to those details...

I never even look at them? LOL

What I missed the most when I joined this forum is the option to go into the site and click on "posts to me" at the top and you can see where people responded to your posts directly. No scrolling thru every post to find out if someone responded to you and no quotes.

Under each post, there is a reply button to respond to individual people. The post is read by all but tagged to the individual who got the answer so they are not searching all over for "their" responses.
