How many forum members does it take to change a lightbulb?
« on: October 18, 2003, 04:13:37 pm »
Answer: 422.

1 to change the lightbulb and post it to the forum that the bulb has been changed.

14 to respond and share similar experiences.

7 to caution about the dangers of changing lightbulbs.

27 to point out spelling errors and grammatical errors in postings about changing lightbulbs.

53 to flame the spell-checkers and grammar fanatics.

156 to write to the moderator to complain about the lightbulb discussion and its inappropriateness to the forum.

111 to defend the relevance of the lightbulb discussion.

27 to post website addresses where one can see different examples of lightbulbs.

14 to complain that the website addresses are incorrect and post correct ones.

12 to \"leave the forum forever\" because they can\'t handle the lightbulb controversy.


Reposted from the Sierra Planet forum, just for fun.
I would just add these:
15 (increasing the number to 437) to ask when lightbulb changing will be implemented in PS, respectively if the lightbulbs are gonna be implemented at all.

8 (so it\'s 445 now) to say they are worried about how the lightbulbs will affect the performance, especially the lag.

1 (making it 446) to continuously post threats saying that thanks to his ingenious evil mind he\'ll soon destroy the market with lightbulbs from within and we all will be lost in the darkness forever.

And thats it.

It\'s right on the spot for this forum if you ask me.
Browsing the forums when I\'m bored, nothing more.

14 - People who post uber 3d models of lightbulbs they made.

168 - People who see the lightbulb but can\'t figure out how to flip the switch on and post whining messages with lots of !!!!! about how PS \"sux because it is so dark\" for Mogura and others to answer over and over.
