Hooray! With this silly response to a silly post, this thread has officially become an "increase your post count" thread! Let's all pile on as we wait for 2.0.

By the way what is the next level above enthusiast? I feel like I've been stuck here forever...

*sigh* I can only dream of being an enthusiast...

Exactly how annoying would it be if I replied to this message a few hundred times?

The FAQ's sir, just the FAQ's.

This shameless post count inflator has been brought to you by the letter Z and the number 2.0.

just say you weren't paying much attention...

I should reply to this very funny post which reminds me of my many years sitting in front of Sesame Street on TV as a kid, but ... Uh oh .. I've been in the computer room too long ... the wife's reading light just went out before I got back to bed ... bad news. "Are you still in there on that stupid computer???" ... "I'll be right there honey!"

bye

In case this was a real question, the next level is 'addict' @ 400 posts.

Do a search, 'cos somewhere there is a list of the posts/levels.

(Oh, and addict looks like the one next to my name, up there ^.... )

Cheers,

Yeah, something is wrong with the BBS or my database entry, because I've been stuck at Old Hand for a while now.

Tony,

Do you actually post a reply in every thread, or do you have one of those fake AI routines wired into the bbs now.

He's actually a robot. Like Margaret Thatcher
He's also been cloned so he can automatically respond to all geek based BBS's



I say this in pure affection and admiration. The amount of work Tony has put into this forum is amazing. For all strangers and newbies, check the number of posts Tony has made on this BBS. There should be a separate catagory for someone who has made nearly 5000 posts

I always wanted to know a word that wasn't a "single" word. Even Chezwazzle is a single word. But wait, .... , is "buttnugget"?

I don't think you're getting into the spirit of the Pop Culture game, here...

The idea is to come up with an appropriate reply from the same source. I admit that I made it hard since the scene ends there (well, all except for the gunfire), but surely, you could have said something like:

"Tony Blair lays on his back, his belly baking in the hot sun, beating his legs trying to turn himself over. But he can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping, Leon."

Who was it Blair? Was it a man? A poh-leece-man?


Better?

Yes, you've got it now.

yea, depending on where post count is kept, since I post from a number of different machines, work, onsite, home...etc...I've been stuck on newbie for what seems like an age! Another problem is new posts read aren't the same on all comps....

Both the post count and the read/unread flags are kept on the server, so it shouldn't matter which computer you use. The problem with the read/unread flags is a bug which nobody has been able to figure out so far. The post count seems accurate, though, you can check yours by clicking on your username. You only need 4 more to become journeyman.

BTW, it seems that if you delete one of your posts, your total doesn't decrease. So on a quiet night you can artificially inflate your count without anybody noticing. Although I'm sure people would notice if you tried to beat Tony...
