Title: What is "leet"? In my profile Post by: btvGainer on September 08, 2016, 11:01:10 AM I was looking to my profile and saw this
" Name: btvGainer Posts: leet Activity: 392" 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? Title: Re: What is "leet"? In my profile Post by: james.lent on September 08, 2016, 11:02:57 AM You've made 1337 posts.

It was actually leet for both 1337 & 1338. I saw both the numbers and leet by refreshing my profile page ;) 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 :) Title: Re: What is "leet"?

In my profile Post by: NLNico on September 08, 2016, 02:15:05 PM 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. Title: Re: What is "leet"?

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. Title: Re: What is "leet"?

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? leet 1337 this one Wow, that's a lot. 13 in total." Source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1550298.msg15582749#msg15582749, me 14 now. Not even two months later. Come on, searching takes literally 30 seconds of your time.

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. Title: Re: What is "leet"? In my profile Post by: Xanidas on September 09, 2016, 06:04:14 AM Hm...

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 |
