I wish they showed post count along with activity as the default, but I can see why they'd like to discourage infatuation with post count - so as to dispel spammers. I was unaware of my post count in my early days on this forum until I changed the setting to show posts as well by default.

Oh wow, mind = blown. So this happens to a single post only, and coincidentally I caught it. Ironically, by the time I posted the screenshot, which is +1 to my post count, then it had already disappeared. No one else got to see it.


LOOOOL I laughed so fucking hard at this. Basically 1337 is leet. It's a stupid hacking term used by kids. Google it.

Yes, I'm fully aware of what 1337 is, as well as all the other h4x0r language. But I couldn't make the connection because I didn't keep tabs on what my post count was.

I have seen users reporting that before, Satoshi just put an easter egg that's all.

I know of another site that has a special rank for people who have 1337 posts. Cheesy
Gimmick ranks can be fun - I wish this forum had more of them.

Yeah it's a little easter egg for simple machine forums, I believe it has got removed in the 2.x updates. Like mprep said it only appears for you when you have reached 1337 posts.

The post count in my profile changed from a number to "leet".

When was this change implemented, and is it possible to change it back to a numerical value?
