I know a lot of post counts at 1-30-2003. Jason, you had 3,771 back then.

I don't think that would be of much use, he has more than that even now. :D

How do you know that, btw?

I saved my farewell-thread. :unsure:

That is the funniest thing ever (not that you saved it, but that you're still here to tell us you saved it).

I was just shy of 2100. Put me back if you don't mind. It took me long enough to get to 2000 the first time around.

How are you going to celebrate when your post count is restored?

Krypton 11-29-2005 03:33 PM

Re: Post count purging?
 
dang.

I wish my post count was at like 700 and it lowered to like 400 then I can ask to set it at like 665, then post a thread at 666!

.... but you're 28 posts away from that. :rolleyes:

Re: Post count purging?
 
So is anybody's post count ever going to be reset or did you just say that to pacify GM?

I know you couldn't see it because you don't have access to special forums, but there was a discussion a while back about 666 not actually being the mark of the beast. It's actually 616. Sorry, but you've already missed your opportunity.

If this place had a suggestion box, I'd suggest getting some faster service. If having my original post count was a meal that I ordered, I'd be losing my patience...

Why is it 616?

And besides, the beast of Revelation doesn't stand for the devil, it stands for something human.

Let's not forget to address this issue.

Man, I know if you were a moderator you would have been all over this and everyone's post counts would have been corrected immediately, because it is SUCH a huge issue. The incompetent and irresponsible staff of this forum could learn so much from a learned and sage veteran like yourself.

REVOLT! Viva el GameMaster!!! Viva la Revolute-see-on!!!

Do not speak against the hand that feeds you.

And be warned, I have been in contact with Neo. My return to power is on the horizon. I suggest you start packing your suitcase that smells of cheap liquor.

I'm not speaking against you! I'm exalting your praises, oh magnificent one. Your benevolent leadership is sorely needed in this totalitarian regime.

If "Neo" is the name of the voice in your head, then I truly do believe you think you'll be a mod again.

And I only drink top shelf, my friend ;)

I'll have time to do it on Sunday probably. No time right now. Must go.

Do you want to split a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue Label with me some day? I've always wanted to have some whiskey that I spent more than $17 a handle on...

Plus, Bond, I think someone fixed the post counts...Mine is back to normal at least.

While most manuscripts of the Bible read six-hundred-sixty-six or 666 for the Number of the Beast in Revelation 13:18, some early manuscripts contain 616 instead. Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus (5th century) and Papyrus 115 (3rd or 4th century). Irenaeus knew about the reading 616, but according to Metzger, Bruce M. (1971). A Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament, New York: United Bible Societies. ISBN 3-438-06010-8., p. 751, Irenaeus "says that 666 'is found in all good and ancient copies,' and is 'attested by those who had themselves seen John face to face.'" The minuscule manuscript 2344 (11th century) identifies the Number of the Beast as 665.

In May 2005 it was reported that scholars at Oxford University using advanced imaging techniques had been able to read previously illegible portions of an early (third century) version of the Book of Revelation, part of its Oxyrhynchus collection of papyri. The fragment gives the Number of the Beast as 616. Scholars now believe the number in question has very little to do with the devil. It was actually a complicated numerical riddle in Greek, meant to represent someone's name. "It's a number puzzle — the majority opinion seems to be that it refers to [the Roman emperor] Nero." Alternative spellings of his name, Neron and Nero, can explain the presence of both 666 and 616 in the records, since dropping the last 'n' changes its numerical value from 666 to 616 ('n' representing 50).
Well if anyone has seen the movie Caligula, I would rather be buddies with the devil than Nero.

Whiskey is for the great unwashed. I drink the nectar that is Bombay Sapphire and Chopin. Clear and distinct liquors for a clear and distict soul.

I guess I have poor hygiene then because I loves me some whiskey...

Gin and Vodka are in second and third place for me, however...And yes, I've had some "interesting" nights after having too much Bombay Sapphire. And by interesting, I mean fantastic.

Ah well. I only had 200 posts anyway. Haven't been here for ages. Perhaps I'll stick around. :)

So what about the recoveries?

Re: Post count purging?
 
Wow, it's been a while...

What's everyone been up to?

Edit: Oh yeah, I'm sure I had something between 5-6k?
