For those with enough karma, I'm curious to see what custom logos you've chosen to replace the Y. And for users who've been here for more than 8600* days, how frequently do you use the direct messaging feature?
*Edit: 2500 days. Read the wrong stat on my profile. So much for pulling a quick one...
- jlgreco 13y agoIs that a thing? I don't seem to be able to do that with 18k+, so if it exists there are only a couple dozen people that can.
- sharkweek 13y agoMy favorite one is for those people who get enough karma to have pg's phone number in the top right corner of the header - pretty cool
- DanBC 13y agoI'm surprised there isn't a rumour about a secret HN board accessible by invitation only.
- eam 13y agoThe first rule of about the Secret HN Board is: You do not talk about Secret HN Board. The second rule of Secret HN Board is: You do not talk about secret HN Board.
- justinpombrio 13y agoI think you just started one.
- Villodre 13y agoI'll propagate it.
- timv 13y agoThere is no HN cabal... (Sorry for the other-other-other-site reference)
- InclinedPlane 13y agoI thought this was a reference to the backbone cabal of the '80s: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backbone_cabal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backbone_cabal
- timv 13y agoYes, but indirectly. It was a relatively common theme on Kuro5hin (back when it had more than 2 stories per year...) that there was no K5 cabal (in reference to the backbone cabal) I was never a heavy usenet-er, so the K5 reference is the one that stays in my mind.
- JacobAldridge 13y agoThose of us on the Board don't like to brag.
- krapp 13y agoI thought HN was just a holding area for people not cool enough for lobste.rs anyway?
- gadders 13y agoThere is a YC participants only board though, isn't there?
- EGreg 13y agoI think you have to have higher karma than pg. He doesn't qualify for his own number.
- arethuza 13y agoWait, that number is "karma" ? I thought it was that Bitcoin thing...
- TazeTSchnitzel 13y agoHow much karma do you need for that?
- habosa 13y agoCan't tell if you're trolling or if I need to hurry up and get a lot more karma!
- covercash 13y agoYC was founded in 2005, so if you do the math...
- chimeracoder 13y agoI have 10K+ and don't have either feature, so probably trolling. The only milestone I remember hitting was downvoting, around 500. (Then again, I also have never had flagging power either - I know people get this removed sometimes, but I don't remember ever having had it. Weird).
- Macha 13y agoI have flagging, but nowadays to get it on a comment you need to click the permalink button on a post to get it. And I'm glad of that, because up until now I've sent in 1 legitimate, intentional report and 10 or so cases of fat fingering the button on a mobile device (not catastrophic because of the unflag option, but still...)
- eli 13y agoHuh, I never noticed the flagging on comments before.
