    Quote Brad: "People who use "u" instead of "you" aren't cool at all. That usually signifies either a lack of command of the English language or that you believe that you're a "1337 HaXoR" and that you know a lot about coding when you are really just a script kiddie." "We just do not speak the same form of (and it is USA for both of us) English. So a few names I just skip over and go on with life." >> yeah man, u're just being intolerant, and still trying to defend that u're right arent u. "same form of English"? guys. put down that pretense. and let me repeat again. "u" and "you" has got nothing to do with "cool" or "not cool" - it's a shorthand. i'm lazy to even capitalize. and if u have to make every decision in your friggin life just so u're in the "cool zone"... X| - dont get me wrong, i dont feel sorry for u. and btw, that's a cheap diversion tactic. Quote Brad: "Dont want to work with losers no more" (context: the guy thinks that quality of articles submitted is degrading everyday and being an elite, he feels he has every right to express his disrespect for others) >> Dont get me wrong. I never contributed a single article to the forum. I just cant stand idiot like u who has no respect for other developers - or people. same goes to u and your clowns. norm

    I was surprised too. I was just scrolling through the list to see what was there. I don't think they filter the list based on any intelligent criteria. Did you expect them to? Oh oh.

    LOL - dya reckon ? You'll always be the number one CP man, Nish, no matter what something as temporal as a post count might be from day to day. Although I'd love to be the first to make 65535 posts. That would rule.
