No more stars!

A second update followed if you also noticed.
Now, the Posts and Likes are just numbers, not the entire text sentence. Presumably this saves a little space. They could also have just combined the 2 icons into one to save space. We all know it's S2KI...
Plain white with years (and do the calculation correctly, instead of the 5 year model) for normal members.
Gold with years for premium.
Perhaps a 3rd or 4th color for admins and moderators.
Point being, engineers don't do user experience well, so the changed the little stars to 1 logo, and changed the wording to another.
Engifineer- The SaaS model absolutely does this, however, sometimes, they are forced to changed by the hosting (Iaas/Cloud) providers as well. Services, versions, etc... are all modified/changed/deprecated on them so they have to move forward. The more you write custom code on top of SaaS solutions the worse it gets. If you stay bear bones, you're usually pretty safe. I haven't read it, but a friend posted a NY Times article on SaaS recently. My service at my past work I fought against SaaS because the applications on my platform were very OS dependent. If AWS/MS-Azure etc... decided the OS was done, there was no alternative. Instead of going SaaS/Cloud, we kept it in house for the control and not breaking applications. It's a vicious cycle.

My image of that image, doesn't have a large "H" (or any letter).
So I wonder if there's a difference in what we each see, or a setting for that.Clearly with the extra "H" in this scenario, it makes the posts much longer. Without it, they appear similar to what they were before.
