Well, there's no hope of making anywhere near as many posts on the Empeg board as Tony F, so we're all starting the race from new here!

Yeah, but on this board I've got admin privileges, so I can reset all your counts whenever I feel threatened. Boo-yah.

We have no hope if Tony is cheating already... That was his first visible post, but his post counter is at 3 already...



I'm sure I won't have as many posts here as I do on the empeg one, as I don't see myself having a Rio Reciever anytime soon. Not for the fact that I don't want one, it's just I can't justify it when my main computer with the empeg hooked into it via audio cables will soon be in the center of my new living location. (Along with the 27inch Destination monitor acting as the main TV as well.)

To be fair (and I'm sure you knew this, but for anyone who hasn't figured it out) the BBS has a "Moderators-only" forum that's hidden to normal users. Admins and moderators can see it. That's where those two posts are.

But you'd never do that - right?

Who you calling a 'nut'?

You've got to protect your investment (in the username).

Just wait for the first scriptkidle who takes on someone else's login and starts posting abuse - I've seen it too many times already. (as I'm sure most of you have too).

I nearly went for tfabris as a login - but I could bring myself to carry all of that weight on my shoulders - oooh the responsibility.

....and he takes the lead.

You do not have to be moderator to use this trick. I wonder how long I will be the top-poster.

That's far too sneaky.

Even 'show all users posts' doesn't find the extra posts.

Cheeky.

Yep, I thought so. Easy enough to do. Hmm, I could always be evil and post a patch for PaulH to apply to fix that

I just wonder how long until someone has a program to do it automaticially.
