The "quote" under your username on the left- how is that determined

[ebrules311]

So if you're a newb or an infrequent poster here you get some quotation under your username like "Sir Wanks Alot," or something so stupid it's not worth remembering.

I can't even remember what mine was it was so silly, but now it says paraphrased: "I should read the forum rules."

OKaaaaay, if I did something wrong, how am I supposed to help out if no one lets me in on it?

Before you call me a clueless newb.., (nah never mind bring on the flames, I am napalm proof....) I have been on boards for over 20 years, never been TOSsed, banned, shunned or anything of the sort... and obviously what I did was less than minor otherwise they wouldn't have made a joke out of it.

So what was it? If a moderator can PM me I'd appreciate it.

Do you notice how it changes every 5 posts you make? (or is it 10 by then?)
Hint, hint.

20 years? When was the Internet invented, and when did "talk forums" become so popular?

Well before the Internet there were Bulletin Board Systems staring in the seventies. I belonged to a few and most consisted of computer in the host's basement. They were accessed by modem over the phone lines at speeds as low as 300 baud. Believe me that was very slow but that's all there was in the primitive mid 20th century.

BTW, the words under your name are the results of an intensive investigate of your personal life that all member must under go.

To determine our mortals' ranks, God himself throws dice. I've posted some groundbreaking stuff that has changed the face of the earth forever but I was unlucky. God was stoned from snorting frankincense when he shot the craps for me. All I got was
<--- this lousy user title.

God threw a critical failure when he rolled for mine. :eek:

God threw a critical failure when he rolled for mine. :eek:

He must have the "Pulling a Homer" (after Homer Simpson)optional rules for critical failures going then if that's the case. That's the one where you check to see how bad your critical failure is and through a strange quirk a fate you end up with a result that somehow comes back to benefit you.

It's Jesus who decides that.

Much more than 20 years actually... technically the internet was around since the early 70s for military use, back when Al Gore was a young lad getting high... that same network started what we call the internet today. There were text based message boards such as usenet and compuserve, and "major domo" lists long before browsers and this common message board platform that nearly every fourm uses today. I started using boards in the mid 80s when I was in college.

Ok, thanks for the non-juvenile reply. I realize the quote on the left was random, but wasn't sure if my particular one last week was an administrator trying to tell me something.
