Can... can you... do that?

Maybe. There is special code to put an image in one member's name:
http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?1&p=1#post1
(Yep, that is thread 1, and post 1. How that post count has resisted consistency checkers I don't know.)

You're assuming that their postcount isn't special-cased as well.

I love how the ridiculously doctored post count combines with the been-there-since-records-began to make about 30 posts a day.

Thus is the power of Lord English.

Perhaps all this time...all he wanted was a friend.

Umm, guys?
Sorry to be intrusive but... what is the required postcount before you can post new threads?
I was gonna post this as a separate thread, but I can't because I... don't have the required postcount to post new threads. Catch-22 anyone?
If I got anything wrong, I apologize. If I've breached some unwritten rule, I apologize. If I apologize too much... no, wait.

http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?36597-WIGGLERS!

but basically; 12 posts. Except in The Cradle - this is where new fan adventures go, and anybody can make a thread there. This is mostly so we can catch spambots before they flood the forum with new threads, but it also helps new users get a handle on the forums and find their way around before starting a possibly redundant thread.

[thehuw]

Cheers. That helped.

Is it possible to link to a post without knowing what thread it is in? If I wanted to see what post was assigned number #5555555 (or any arbitrary number), is there a way to do that buy just altering the URL?

The URLs are quite resilient, exempli gratia: http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4444444#post4444444.

Random bonus tip: one can edit the cookie set by the multi-quote feature to let one multi-quote posts from threads that are locked. No more wondering what piece of BBCode magic produced a particular ancient post.

There's also a BBcode tag that works in a similar fashion, though it's really only useful if you're worried about the character limit.

Or what happens after Forapocalypse II: The Re-Scratching, when we more over to MS Community Server or whatever and all the URIs change again.

It is sooner than you think.

whaaaaaat

Oh man dude, sometimes sarcasm and/or irony can be difficult to detect, so like wait are the forums seriously getting scratched, should I go through the dark halls of this condemned house and dig out all of my important treasures???

[NotASenator]

No, but they will be getting better soon.

[tynic]

... because they were sick. We hope you remembered to send them flowers and chocolates in hospital, you ingrates.

There was a period where it was really a close call, and the forums just kept going 'Where's Paul? Where's Paul?' as it slipped in and out of consciousness, possibly for the last time.

But then it got over you.

*tears and crying*

[deathsbuddy]

Is this my fault? I feel like this is all my fault.

You probably gave it the plague. Nice going.

Might I comment wondering why I can't view who is all on the forum at any given time? Typically on VBulletin or Zeta the bottom of the forum holds a list of currently online users, and clicking the number of users takes you to a page that shows specifically where each member is.

Without it I'm usually stumbling around wondering if the people I think will be on are on or not, and if they are on, I'm not sure where they are. It's quite frustrating.

I second this: stalker vision is pretty useful sometimes and I have been wondering why it doesn't exist here.
