Okay.

how is it your postcount is "leet"? are you an extraterrestrial?

I spotted that ages ago and posted the pic in the Longest Thread Ever. It is wierd, but not enough to warrant the ridiculous "OMFG 1337 LOL BBQ WTF!!!1!11!1!!1!!!one!1!1!!" title of this thread.

Another member's post count did the same thing last year, and i can't remember whose it was

http://www.inthe00s.com/index.php/topic,7094.30765.html

Because I'm 1337, I guess.

And I have a good sense of humor about these things :)


But i posted that picture over 2 1/5 hours ago, and you've made more posts since then, so wouldn't it have changed back a while ago?!  ???

No, I have a very simple method to remain 1337 8)

are you deleting a post every time you add one? :o

(From "Short Circuit" in case anyone's wondering)

Did you hack into the site?

Nope.  Delete about 9500 of your posts and you too can be 1337 :D



Why would I do something that a) affects our standings on the Big Board list and b) re-do something that took me this long to do? 


No thanks.

WhoaMG! I bow to thee..!

what happened in 1337 to merit all this leetness?

I still think you hacked into the site, or something.  I used to have that many posts once, and it never said "leet".

Maybe you just never looked? I don't know, I don't really remember when I had that amount of posts.

I'm fairly certain someone would have mentioned it to me if I had a word in place of a bunch of numbers.

i happen to know you, beth and me are all shameless postwhores, i bet we all breezed right past 1337 without ever noticing the leet.

Maybe my sense of humor isn't acute enough to find this funny.  *shrugs*

it was actually just an observation, not really meant to be funny per se.

Which is what makes it funny.

It could be an error with the boards.  Sometimes this board does funny things ... remember when I accidentally did this?

Not only did it screw up the boards for everyone to see, but it also ...

- turned my profile into a blank un-accessable page
- turned my screen name into tuxedo sam
- turned my penguin title as my posts
- and my posts said that i was off-line

;D

Its not an error. It happened to me both times- with my current account and the old one that I deleted.

I can't believe none of you guys noticed it. ???

Feast all thine eyes upon my awesome 1337ness!  :D :D :D
OH, I didn't know it was you.  I thought it was some dork.  ;D  I get it now Alex. it's Leet

By using numbers instead of letters?  I still don't get it.  Maybe I'm not meant to.  I have a much different sense of humor than most people here.  I don't find slapstick comedy, toilet humor, random words/phrases or stuff like that funny.  I like cerebral comedy....stuff that makes you think.

Comedy that makes you think? NO SUCH THING! :P

I hate slapstick... And toilet humor isn't funny either.

What's leet? ???

I passed 1337 ages ago.

God, people need to relax around here. When the hell did this become a board where everything has to have meaning and/or be serious? Most of you are b*tching about this being a worthless post, when there are about 100 worthless topics up on PPP.

Get a f*cking grip. ::)

And it shouldn't. Messageboard=FUN, unless you're in the politics board . :P

Yeah, I don't understand why people are making such a big deal out of it. No one complains when others make threads announcing their post count. Shoot, no one complained when the "I gotta crap" thread was created either.

Ah, but people did complain when I made that "What Does Poop Taste Like?" thread.

You know what would be amusing as hell? If Chucky just got rid of post count all together. It seems like most people are only on here posting just to make that number go higher. What's the fun in that? What, do you get to brag that you're second in posting? Ooh, wow. ::)

The next member to reach 1337 will be nicki_morrissey, currently on 1250 odd.

But if you don't find something in the least bit amusing how are you meant to laugh?? and indeed why should you?

Chucky should get rid of post count.  There are some boards out there that don't have post counts, just join dates

Yeah, the magical post count is equivalent to the craps I take that border upon mystical.  It's cool for a second, but in the grand scheme of things it matters none.

Some people just like it.  It doesn't mean if you have a high number you're better than someone with a low number.....some people just like watching the numbers change.  Too, the whole "milestone" thing is kind of fun, especially when you get to 10,000 or 25,000.

I think you get a free toaster with the first 10,000 posts (at least that's what *I* heard)

After the first 100,000 you get to spend your frequent poster miles on the things that matter to you most (although some blackout dates may be in effect)  :P

I disagree with your first sentence. For every person who doesn't give a damn about post count, there is one that thinks he/she is special because they post thousands of times.


Man, there is nothing more fun than bringing up a plan to get rid of post count....except getting rid of post count.

I think it was a supernova.  Some Chinese dudes saw something explode in the sky, and a few centuries later, astronomers detected a quasar or something where the Chinese dudes said it should be.

I took a mystical crap just now to celebrate your mystical craps.  It was cool for about three seconds, it was that mystical.  I wish I could do it again, but I guess it really doesn't matter now, does it?  ;D

Maybe that is the perk that comes with 1 million posts, Graham Kerr moves in with you?  :-\\  I'd hope it wouldn't be that foul mouthed chef (Gordon Ramsey), although he may cook supurbly, I don't care for the language myself.  :-[

I am not real computer savvy, I am lucky I can turn the damn thing on so I'm not
up on the 1337-5p43k code. I have noticed kids in the teen and college tournaments
on Jeopardy often bet $1,337 or leet. It be a real shame if parents caught onto the [0)3.  ;D

Who cares right.... they're just numbers! ::)

You are right.  They are just numbers.  But since they're just numbers and therefore innocous and not harmful, there's no reason why they need to be eliminated.

Delete post count.  All we really need is the date each of us joined, and the date last active in our profiles.  It does the same thing as a post count ... show how long each of us has been around, who are the newbies, and who are the long time members :)
