I think the way it works is:

Staff people get five stars, that are not the same color as the 'normal' ones.
Those that have been given the 'Chemist' tag, also get 5 stars, that look different.
For everybody else, it depends on how many posts you have.  So you get more stars over time.

With the theme I am using (not the default), I see 5 asterisks but no beaker.  So I think it depends.

The world is like an atom. The not-quite-as-intelligent people are the nucleus all packed together sharing a common...everything. We, we are the electrons. Granted we're not as smart as these engineers and what-not so we're most likely in the first orbital, but we're the electrons of this giant atom. We all have differing intelligences and ideas and we are separated from the nucleus which makes us better because no one really cares about how a nucleus acts. It's the electrons that make chemistry, except for nuclear chem, of course, which I am a big fan of.
