Quite simple really, Drop the star image and use a chat bubble in it's place for the "you've posted". Bare in mind, I'm tired so it seems like a good idea to me. (Mockup below) (updated with the icons floated to the far right)
As cool as it is web design-develop wise, I agree, don't show in a UX/UI what isn't needed, when it's not logical to display it. And show it, as the exception to the situation, so you draw attention to it.
I am saying in regards to the opacity changed status of the image in the third picture mockup not being needed, as it's a state we're not interested in.

I personally feel looking at it more having anything next to the title (on the left just clutters the left hand side. indicators/icons whatever they may be I feel should be thrown to the right. Anything inserted by along the second line would just clutter this area up when text on the left should be easy reading.
Here's my mockup that I posted to the other thread discussing this same thing:
Green dot on the left = unread. Chat bubble on the right = you have posted in the thread.

The green icon is bumping up against the avatar block, and it looks cramped. I would want more space between the avatar, icon, and title, but then threads that don't have the icon would have an awkward gap between the avatar and title.

like i previously said in other thread i thin that the bubbles are perfect, but i don't like the green/blue dots ... i prefer (if is possible) make something around the tiny avatar ...
I suggested using the avatar in a thread to denote someone online (background, border, etc.) but it was roundly dismissed so I suspect this idea would be equally as unwelcome.

An image should be used, as it'll standout to people who have problems with sight (Elderly and others), and the alt text would be useful for the blind.
