It means that the user is a moderator for the Treehouse Community. Basically, they answer a lot of the questions that people have in the forum in a positive manner so Treehouse gives them a nice acknowledgment for them helping out and keeping the community of learning strong. It is very common in many forums. Hope that answers your question Shinny. Keep up the coding! :)
