Stars or no stars, if you know what you're doing, you can make just about anyone put money in when you're ahead. I would say they call Stars harder because people go there from other sites where they won a lot of money, but realize they have no real poker skills while doing so (traps, image management, reads). They're just smart enough not to play super stupid, which was good enough to win a lot of $$$ on donkypoker.com. On Pokerstars, the smart raw players adapt to the "real" poker environment, and become smart seasoned players who figure out new and exciting ways to Pwn. If you're a smart person, you'll make money on Stars too. It's just different. There just aren't as many fish.

Implied odds at 200-400NL on Stars are delicious to say the least though. I find that money moves around rather fluidly on these tables.

The big secret of poker is that you will bust almost anyone if you make the proper adjustments to counteract their style of the moment. Stars is not immune to this.
