    Is there any chance I could have my post count displayed in binary? Yes I know I'm a nerd for requesting this but I just saw my post count had hit 1024 and I thought would it be class if it read 100000000.

    /me looks for where he put his pocket protect0r.

    First, you're missing two zeros (10000000000 not 100000000).

    Second, with the three posts since, now it's 10000000011 (which doesn't look nearly as sexay)

    Sorry for my outburst of nerdiness. I still think it would be class to have my postcount in binary but I suppose its a bit of an obscure request.

    I think the joke is more on the lines of:
    "There are 10 kinds of people in the world. Those who know binary and those who don't"

    No higher on the funny scale but a lot higher on the "making bleedin sense scale":)

    This has a certain geeky allure to it that is hard to come by. Yes please.

    Nearly worth it alone for when a newbie looks at his post count after his second post..

    <edit: oooh.. and why not go the whole hog and have the "Date Registered" changed from calender to epoch? G'wan g'wan g'wan..>
