I'm no good at that. Everyone ignores my crazy rants and continues postwhoring, the smegheads.:(

It's like these people don't realise that everyone doesn't worship them for having such a high postcount. What will impress people is the quality of your posts, if you say clever or amusing things then people will like and respect you. Post boring prattle and smilie spam everywhere and people will just think you're a pathetic postwhoring wanker, and start crazy rants and gundge at lot.

It's from Red Dwarf (a sci-fi program from the 90s) don't tell me you've never heard of it! :eek:
Smeg is like the all-round swear word of the future, like fuck. They just invented it because the program was shown to early to swear properly, I think.

It should probably be higher. There were just way too many computer questions, and I don't know the first thing about that stuff. Most of my geekness is related to liking obscure music and supremely geeky shows like MST3K.
