they all typed /server 127.1.1.1 (something like that or does it have zeros in it?) which caused them all to quit out of the chat. and the rating is 1337 which is pretty sad too.

/server 127.0.0.1 would cause them to join a server on their local computer.

My CS playing friend brought a car that just happened to have the numberplate L337 SAS.

Lucky fucker.

you deliberately broke a joke?
Posted by Miki_DUPE1, around 24th June 2005:
 
to be fair, it was hardly funny :P

...to utterly-pointlessly fuck something up, for the sake of being able to say "i fucked that up for everyone else, HAH. i'm a hero."

Never claimed to be a hero Mr Salty. But if me adding one point to that "joke" upset you that much then might I suggest you take a trip to that place we call "outside". And if you think I "fucked that up for everyone else" then might I also suggest that you are deluded if you think everyone else is as hopelessly geekridden as your good self.

Also, note that I added one to the rating, rather than taking one away.

Rather than saying "HAH. I'm a hero" I find myself thinking "HAH. I wound up a tosser. 10 points to me!"
