Why does the poster Contestant #3 have 0 as a post count when it is obvious that (s)he obviously has a much higher count? This poster also isn’t banned or anything…and the posts appear available. What’s up?
The exact opposite of down.
(Oh, come on, admit it–you guys’ll miss me when I’m gone.)
He’s been saving that, just waiting and hoping that eventually some day somebody would say that unlikely combination of words: “what’s up?”
pshaw!
Zoggie I thought #3 was indeed banned. Was recognised as another name for someone not welcome, I thought. Best not to speculate, I always think.

GRR!! I just read the locked thread on McDonalds by him in the pit, and noticed the exact same thing. So I came here to ask why, and you beat me to it…punk!!
So, really, what’s up?
Because all of his posts under that name where under the old software, UBB. After the conversion to vBulletin, many (perhaps all?) postcounts were reset, even though the posts themselves are still there.
Actually, he was banned, after which he showed up under a host of usernames, attacking the Admininistration for their Evil Deeds. Finally, after a lot of apologising and groveling, the Administration decided to give him one more chance. I’ll leave it to the reader to decide whether or not that was a wise decision. He opted for the new screen name Krispy Original. He doesn’t seem to post a lot anymore.
Thanks, Coldie. No longer will I be forced to scratch my head, furrow my brow, and say “What’s up?” in that perplexed manner.
Hehe. I beat Pampi. And very clever, Myster.
Hey, just be glad that MysterEcks didn’t say “The unit vector antiparallel to the local apparent gravitational field”, which is my standard answer to that question. 'Course, most of the folks I’m talking with on a daily basis are other physicists.

Hell, most of the people Italk to on a daily basis don’t even get “the exact opposite of down.”
