Default Referrals?

Just noticed on 'My profile' that it says "Referrals 1". Anyone know what that means?
There's lots of icons and buttons on this software that don't have any explanation. How about a 'Help File' that we can refer to. For instance, as I'm typing this, there is an icon to the right of the box a/A . If you hover the mouse over it, it says " Switch Editor Mode" but clicking on it doesn't seem to do anything? Just thought I'd ask

I've never paid much attention to the buttons in the reply area, another grape might be able to advise on those if they use them....

The referrals are from where someone's signed up to the vine and blamed you for their joining

"there is an icon to the right of the box a/A"

It toggles between the mode that lets you use codes - e.g. things in square brackets for Bold / Italics, as well as emoticon symbols - and "preview" mode so you can see how the rest of the world will see your message.

Its sort of explained in the FAQ (indirectly though!)

faq - read and post

Referrals are explained in the FAQ:

but I dunno how you got one!
