A very cool assignation, indeed! Congratulations. You'll reach at least 11,000 by the time MWSF is over--here's waiting for your critique.

LOL That's great. I don't think anyone even thought of "clinically insane" in the other threads about this
I like the Multi-Colored stars. So now I guess there won't be another "promotion" until 100,000 posts? Maybe 1,000,000 posts?

Okay, I thought it would be a good idea to take more time here, sit back, relax, and coast through to 500 posts
One liners are short, sweet, and good, but I think they're also a fast way to get me banned off a place I enjoy
BTW: Please don't get angry if I accidentally somehow end up the most recent poster all the time
I don't like being flamed

Blue is only for moderators.
Members 1-999 = yellow
addicted members = green
moderators = blue
admins = red
parallax = black
cipher = random colors
is that right?

No problem, JoeG4.
Just remember that you can "overload UBB" if you post too often, and sometimes there'll be a numeric overflow "error" which causes your post count to drop to some intolerably low (i.e., negative) number.

Oh yes... We've seen that before... wouldn't want it to happen... it can also cause an alteration in the title field if it goes *too* far...
*tries to contain laughter*
Thanks heaps everyone... but Tobster... don't think you're getting rid of me that easily

If Steve does indeed read the forums, well, I can't imagine him having much of an affinity for me
As for my username... well, it's along the lines of encryption, but I can't explain now, cause I gotta go... when I get back!

Rats. I thought he'd get Post Whore.
Oh, well. What's the next point? 20,000? At the same rate... I dunno how long he's ben here, so I can't say how long it'll take to reach the big two zero zero zero zero zero.[/LIST]

More or less, Cipher's random colors apply for anyone >= 10,000.
Of course, right now that means Cipher.

It should be all the imac colors, or translucent stars. hehe
Um, is it bad if I post a lot, but all my posts are on topic, decent, and have a lot of things to say in them?

Google "Cipher 13" with the space, and notice how it tries to correct you with "Cipher13" -- all results pointing to him.
LOL!

Not really, though once I saw someone's post in a Yahoo search.
I wonder how that happened.

Greetings,
Ich gratuliere! I hope you will continue to post for some time to come.
I like the star colours too. It would be even cooler if there were some animation involved.
Quite honestly, I hope that no one else get to 10,000 posts as long as Cipher continues to post. It would then be no longer unique.

Heh I feel like I'm back in EZBoard with all the "starfarmers". Okay you guys probably don't know what I'm talking about.
Personally, I'm looking forward to my second star.

Congrats Cipher,
Now if you liked Elvis like your parents, it might only be 5,000 posts
syfr=1101 (heh, heh,) also said:
---------
As for my username... well, it's along the lines of encryption, but I can't explain now, cause I gotta go... when I get back!
----------
And we want to know how much time can a macnner with 10,000+ posts possibly spend away from his macs? Like 5 minutes?
And besides enquiring minds now want to know - along the lines of encryption - well, what's within the crypt?
--
PS I never noticed that parallax has all black stars until a poster remarked. Kinda spooky - does that make Parallax some kind of Darth MacVader ?

Hey Ciph- good hustle, kid! That's the ole swing boy! Schwing battabattabatta Saaa WING battaaaaaaa!
I DO dig those stars! Title's not bad, too. Though, I myself would have preferred "Crack Whore for MacNN". Perhaps those who reach 10000 should be given the joy of having their own personalized title?
