Hm... In a bot controlled campaign like YoBit or Bitmixer, what would their signature bots do when they went on the site and found "leet"?

If I'm not wrong, they use web scrapers, not API.

IIRC, someone in bitmixer campaign have that issue and it is fixed once you reach 1338 posts, i just don't remember what the bot shows exactly but it is not a problem for the forum tho

Spear the bees

Can't quote a locked thread, too bad.

Can we please use the search function? It's there for a reason.

"Just for the record:

Post count for member is "leet" what does this mean?
what the heck is leet?
Posts: "leet"? What???
What is happening with my account ? Post count : leet ?
Post Count : leet
New Feature Or What? (Post Count)
post count: leet
My post count says leet - haven't seen that before?
Question about“Posts:leet"
Okay now what does this mean?

Yes, this is part of the SMF software (which is an open-source forum not made by Satoshi lol.)

posts = 1337 = 'leet'
posts > 100000 = 'I am a geek!!'

You guys made me search the SMF source..

Code:

'posts' => $profile['posts'] > 100000 ? $txt[683] : ($profile['posts'] == 1337 ? 'leet' : comma_format($profile['posts'])),

So there IS actually another easter egg, just not that boob-thing lol. Upon more than 100.000 posts you get the following permanent post count:

Code:

$txt[683] = 'I am a geek!!';

Seems fair.

Thanks for this info.Interesting Easter eggs at first I got scared as if my account has got hacked lol

Ha ha. I didn't know about the 'I am a geek!!' message.
People attempting to reach that post count will most probably get banned for spamming before that.

assuming that most productive poster archived about 20k in 4-5 years, so in
the next 20 years, to anyone does not threaten to become geek Grin

Its 1338 now, maybe because it was 1337 and theymos has a little joke in the counter?

It was actually leet for both 1337 & 1338. I saw both the numbers and leet by refreshing my profile page Wink

AFAIK, Satoshi built this forum and then handed over to Theymos. So this little easter egg maybe an injection of Satoshi too. Probably Theymos can confirm

So was it an Easter egg? Has it happened to someone else also?Is it appear whenever a user reach 1334?
Edit :Ah just saw this in Philippines forum while searching https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.15644868
Expecting to hear some official word on it

I am very confused as why leet is written before my number of posts?
What is this?
When I checked it earlier my posts were 1334.Is it any kind of bug or what?
