          Re 100K points: It depends what classification you get the points in: For Debator you get the Golden Keytop of Tharrrg: a level 43 "C" key with an automatic downvote to any post by CSS. For Authority you get the Q&A Button Of Doom which automatically emails the OPs' tutor with a copy of the question. Well worth the wait, I can promise you!

                  I agree as well as dis-agree. We must be lenient to new members and must not down-vote them, unless they have reached a specified level of (say 2000 rep points. and reluctant to posts by troll and similar as we are now to others who have been here for some long time.

                                        Don't you know the ancient and secret pictorial alphabet of Emoticon? It roughly translates into "I can't even be bothered to phrase some coherent words and therefore throw some random symbols. Please ignore my attempts to communicate with you since my communication skills are not sophisticated enough to have a proper conversation with you." :)

                                          He was trying to buy a new lappie in April - I thought he had been sectioned, but no - it is possible that he can't find the "on" button on the new one...

                                          Yes, I remember that he posted something about that. This means we have another few years until he gets enough money to do so and come back here.

                                          Aren't you a bit unfair to him now? He also manages to find the valve of his inflatable girlfriend. :)
