So I've been meaning to ask about this for quite some time now - ever since my status changed to it in fact - but I never got around to it, and now I've changed again I've spent the last few days just trying to find someone with this status.
But enough preamble. What on earth does it actually mean? Assuming it's actually intended to mean anything at all. I'm pretty familiar, even fluent (somewhat to my shame, somewhat to my geeky pride) with 1337 in its various forms, along with any number of other alternative dialects, but I'm utterly stumped by this. So what does it mean?
Entirely pointless and irrelevant to everything ever, I admit, except my peace of mind.

It's a reference to the Sinclair ZX81, an old computer model.
If there's anything more to it, then I missed it.

ZX81 is also a song by pitchshifter

Really? Oh, that's a shame. I was hoping for an awesome OMGSPLOSION of incredible meaning that would change me forever. Or at least something that sounded pretty cool.
Thanks for the help guys :)

Fwehehehe, nice :D Please feel free to invade Portsmouth, it's not all that anyway :D Just leave Havant standing, as I should probably finish my A levels, and maybe the houses of me and a few friends.
Actually scrub that. Annihilate Paulsgrove, Somerstown and North End. Brillig.
a little bit off topic, but why am I a pimp? I don't wanna be a pimp :(

The name changes with the number of posts. So, if you want to be something else, post more. I think you need 1,100 to reach the next name.

Yo be down wi' it home diggedy dawg. It all about da bling bling when you a P.I.M.P brutha.
All said in a middle class, southern English accent. Fantastic isn't it.
And just wait 'til you reach the heady heights of CyberSheep Farmer. The sense of achievement is tremendous. It actually is - I've even started changing my msn screen name to reflect my jolt status. Sad isn't it?

Whereabouts do you live? Any areas of your town you'd like PM to raze to the ground?

I don't give out my location, but it would be fair to say that there are many, many parts of the area that need to be razed.

Hehe, see the good thing is that, as a fellow Generalite, I can pretty much guarentee that you do stuff equally sad and geeky :p Be cool with it - there's no shame in being a geek.

How come? I should've thought anyone determined enough to find you would deserve a hearty handshake and be just the sort of person you'd want to befriend. Besides which, how on earth are me and PM to raze your town if we don't know which one it is? I suppose we could just raze all of Britain. Most of it needs it anyway.
Go ooooon, just the town - how are we menna find you with just the name of your town? :)

Moi? Geeky?
*Hides post count that seems to have grown really quite big recently*
Nah, I'm pleased to say that, in reality, I'm relatively ungeeky. I just like politics, and it only takes a few posts a day over a sustained period to build up a lot of posts.

I always have this fear that if I say where I am, one of the forums resident paedophiles or gun nuts will pop up and say "hey! I live right next door to you!"

Just destroy anything built in the 50s and 60s. The rest of Britain isn't too bad.

Aaaah you forget yourself young padawan; here post count is everything - forget the content, just get a few thousand posts under your belt and people WILL RESPECT YOU!!! Honest.

Hehe, fair play. I myself have found myself slipping down the slope into ever more geekiness as the months and years roll by, and it seems pretty inevitable, so I figure why fight it? :D But at the same time I have a very healthy social life and do actually go outside and stuff lol, so I guess I just defy all stereotypes eh? :D

You could always TG me - you know where I live anyway, so you're safe from me (unless you actually live in Portsmouth lol - unlikely).

No need, the government seems to be doing all that for me, if the (long overdue, finally complete) destruction of the Tricorn is anything to judge by. Still, I'm sure they always appreciate a helping hand/explosion.
Nope. :p
Aaaaww you're mean :p:D
Thanks for this thread Mosseica. I was wondering what that stood for myself.
