according to timeBandit -> http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php? ... 79#6111979
Two new forum postcount ranks have been created, to distinguish those Veterans who really have had a lot to say--or at least, have said a little with great frequency. :D
Enjoy your shiny new badges.
i´m guessing you get this if you have written more than 2000 posts or sth. like that.
advocate is one, but which one is the secoand ?

cheers

According to the FAQ 5000+ is Watchman :lol:

Is the string below the the rss feed tag like images meant to be scrambled? I can't read anything but it looks like there is something written.

have they fixed the bug where your non-OTW posts won't clock over a certain figure tho?
#define HelloWorld int
#define Int main()
#define Return printf
#define Print return
#include <stdio>
HelloWorld Int {
Return("Hello, world!\n");
Print 0;

That's intentional, like the level cap in most D&D games, so that your epic feats don't make you too powerful.

Note to self: Get name changed to "Devil's" before someone else does.

I'm "supposed" to be looking into upgrading the forum to the newest version of phpBB but I haven't gotten around to it yet. When I do I'll post a thread somewhere asking for input about bugs and such. Hopefully I'll find the time soon.

Will you keep the design or will everything change to multicolored buttons etc. :)

Those of you who participated in the bunder's phpBB v3 pilot forum last year already have a good idea how the look will change (namely, not much). Those of you who did not will be pleasantly or unpleasantly surprised, according to your individual tastes. :wink:

What he said. In addition, I believe phpBB v3's search is somewhat less dreadful, though I've no idea whether our stopwords list would alter that, if the list carries over.
Plants are pithy, brooks tend to babble--I'm content to lie between them.

Wasn't the OTW postcount deducted? I remember going back a number of posts when this was implemented,

I didn't say OTW postcount. I said non-OTW postcounts. This would cap at a figure, just like in yr profile the max posts is capped at 6666 (even tho some of us have over 10,000)
#define HelloWorld int
#define Int main()
#define Return printf
#define Print return
#include <stdio>
HelloWorld Int {
Return("Hello, world!\n");
Print 0;
