These guys dress up like giant cell phones and then attack and destroy other people's cell phones.

If this is for real, there will be a judge who will also find this tremendously funny. They may think this is fun and games, but it is still assault, and that could earn them hard time.

Ivan, why does it say you have 6,525 posts?

And theft, and destruction of property, and trespassing (to get the phone suits) all wrapped up with a nice little online confession! I hope it's just a spoof site.

Ivan, why does it say you have 6,525 posts?

Because I do?

I've been posting here for almost four years now.

Actually, he has more than that, since GD and P&WA posts don't count toward post count, and I think Ivan was here before the upgrade that reset everyone's post counts to 0 (I joined after that, but it sounded like that wasn't much before I joined).

 

[Ivan Seeking]

I thought P&WA still counted? Also, I don't remember the post count resetting. I think it was just the post counts in specific forums when they got shuffled and split.

Am I all wet here?

Oh wait, I think not long after I joined there was an upgrade...

I can see GD, but why does P&WA not count?

It's a subforum of GD under the category of "not science." Unless I'm wrong, since Ivan seems to think they do still count.

Sorry, wrong number!

We decided earlier this year that flaming and personal opinion didn't count as posts.

Ooops, did I just say that out loud?

Which leads me to ask - why do posts in philosophy count?

No, it's because we forgot to exclude them.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

Yes, who knows why Universities even bother with the subject. Clearly there is no use for logic.

I believe there have actually been two post-count resets, but those phone-guys are the ones who really need to be reset. I don't think that is funny, hopefully that was all staged (where would you get the nerve to destroy someone's phone like that?)
