What is up with the XX-1/2 post numbers?

Posted on 06/01/2011 9:18:09 PM PDT by West Texas Chuck

I can't help myself, I am a nosy person. In the last week or so I have seen two different posters with an XX-1/2 post number, a weird join date, and a FReep name that leads to some YouBoob or Wiki destination.

What the heck is up with this? Check 24-1/2.

Makes me think we are being hacked. I dunno, but that is shennanigans of some sort. I guess I'm just a suspicious person, but abnormal stuff gets my attention.

I was paranoid, prolly still am,...

Yeah, I was paranoid the first time I had a reply from the FReeper who does these posts. I thought it was an off duty MOD messing with me, but now I'm on the guy's ping list.

It's all good.

Nice work, Buford!

If you look closely, you will see that 24½ is really just part of 25.

Much as FR needs an ntpd, it also needs better HTML filtering!

Half wits only count as half a post because they only have half a thought.

I may be paranoid, but that doesn’t mean people aren’t trying to kill me.

Oops! In looking again I may have misread the html! I want to give credit where credit is due!

I have a good excuse. I am an old codger!

Please see my post number 27.

A very interesting 'trick'. I am impressed!

To gain a better understanding select 'view source' from your browser and take a look at the html for the post number 24 on that thread.

There are some very talented people here. Just a couple of days ago I saw a picture posted that was done using the html tables. A work of genius.

Mr. Jack Hydrazine! My hat is off to you! You Sir are a scholar and a gentleman and a master of html. I shall be honored to be on your ping list for those posts! I humbly request my name be added, kind Sir :)

Freerepublic.com is truly a fountain of knowledge on many subjects. I am honored to be in the company of such talented persons!

OK, I’m a n00b at HTML, you guys are making fun of me.

I was paranoid, prolly still am, I didn’t realize you could hack stuff like that and not be the enemy.

My stune is on beeber, it is hugh and series, but y’all are a bunch of homos anyway ;)

Sometimes I stop to think, and then forget to start again.

Fags. But I lurve all of ya. Sorta.

Ah. You aren’t a fool...I did the same thing a few years ago when I first started to see it...and actually met in person the freeper who does it...it is just a harmless trick, funny sometimes, and above my head how it is done too.

It’s just creative HTML tagging. It’s one post made to appear as two. The apparent post with the “1/2” is actually part of the following post; they are one post.
