^Lolz.
Old but Gold.
I found it funny.
We can handle entertainment just fine, we just can't handle reruns. Oh and not locked yet? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />
I found this to be funny, never seen it before.
Some people just need to chill out, just because you have seen something on the internet before doesn't mean that everyone has, and the fact that something is old to you is by no means grounds for locking a thread...
gotta remember that this board was down for ages... so sometimes even the old stuff is good to dredge up again imo
New to me also. Why don't we just lock the entire NS forum, seeing as everyone here has seen it already?
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I think they tried that for like a year. It turns out if you get rid of the forums people think NS is dead.
Remember that thread about that mod or whatever, where the sub-title was "Look how fast this gets locked" and it went for 7 pages or something? Yeah.
Stop acting as if you have some intricate understanding of the hardly existent forum posting guidelines, it only makes you look like a huge tool.
tl;dr: Saying "In before lock" makes you look like a tool.

Not a bad idea, IRC lock too? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

I agree with this so much that I posted it again.
As for the original post, it was very funny. I might have even laughed out loud. On a second reading however I think it might just be a farce. Maybe I'm overestimating the intelligence level of someone that would try to pretend to be a software employee, but it strikes me as more likely someone would hilariously fake it before someone would hilariously f*** up that way.
all the people who cry old should learn that telling people stuff is old is old.
So behind the times!!! I mean, really... :p

Old, Xyth said that a few posts before you.
Would people shut up about saying "Lock this", "In before lock", "Why isn't this locked yet?". Honestly guys, how many pointless threads have actually been locked? None? Maybe one?

I agree, they only lock stuff for hard flames or pure spam nowadays.
Pure spam is like a post with only one word in it and flames are flames.

I remember some time ago a transcript was posted about some script-kiddy threatening some guy over IRC, asking for IP so he can hack him, typical internet stuff. Anyway, the guy being threatened tells the would-be hacker that his IP is 127.0.0.1, hilarity ensues. I think the transcript ended with the kiddy reformatting his own computer or something to that tune.

Thank you sweetheart, glad that not everyone on this board isn't so uptight. Thought I was going to have to join the conservative party just to fit in...
