I just realized...

Notice I didn't say anything about "points". I was talking about the color levels (platinum, gold, silver, et al) that have been in place since Codeproject was new.

Since when are CodeProject-related topics verbotten in the Lounge. Have we finally come to that? I don't really give a flyin' f*ck what you (or anyone else) think about me talking about points. I'm just replying to your messages with further observations, and contextual thoughts and ideas. In the civilized world, we call this a "conversation". Google it if you need to. And yeah, in case you haven't already figured it out, you're pissin' me off.

You just made that up - I never said that.

If I don't even think about *my* points, why the flyin' f*ck will I ever think about your (or anyone else's) points?

Honestly I don't care, but I kept my replies civil, and polite. If that has pissed you off, I can't help it. :)

I have no complaints whatsoever, but I was making another observation by comparing two of your "images" here. It's hard to imagine the same guy making these two kind of posts. That's all. :)

I'm not talking about what should be posted here, but you're certainly not going to make your posts about "reputation" look any better by calling CCC, cricket and other posts as nonsensical crap. To me, these points, and posts about the points are pretty much nonsensical crap as well. But people who seem to get enormous joy out of their online points should continue to talk about it, and I'll have no problems. Most importantly, if this was someone else, I wouldn't have bothered to comment. But when you post about silly things like points (silly in my opinion), it's just alarming. :)

I did not "get on" him (whatever that means) for posting about points, I just said that I felt weird about someone as tough a guy as him being (or at least as I thought he was) concerned about some online points. That's all. I also didn't know this was going to become a lengthy conversation either.

Admittedly, the first half dozen of the questions in my list were used by CP admins to test the Q/A feature.

Yeah - just squares in the appropriate color with the "Suck it, GRAUS!" in big white letters under the squares. If I wanted to really mess with people, I could change the text to "Suck it, Christian!", and let people wonder if it has some sort of hidden religulous meaning.

Unfair comparison - I think 100% of my posts are more readable than Dave's messa-drunk-ages. :)

- You must also not have noticed that I was targeting my post at Christian and his ungodly number of reputation points (and I don't think anyone's gonna catch him for the next five or six years). 1) I find it funny that the 1-voting f*ck-tards think that their votes on this thread are going to change anything regarding my status. It's an exercise in futility. 2) At the same time, I'm kinda shocked that some of the f*ck-tards are reasonably high-rep users. Typically, we see this kind of puerility from noobs who have no sense of community or respect.

Surely those voting 1 are just saying they think that post is crap - or is it all about you?

What's puerile about down-voting something you don't like? Isn't that what voting is all about? or should everyone just give everyone a 5 for every post?

No, you were bragging about your points. Man up and admit it, FFS. You get a buz about having lots of points. Good ho - fine, whatever floats your boat. now stop making excuses, take the one votes like a man.
