bites.....uh, on compsci

[the_binary_soul]

hey...this seems like a foolish question, and its probably written all over the site and I've simply over looked it, but since it already says newbie over my name I might as well act like one..............

what is with the bites(bytes?) under my name????

[octopi]

Its bits.
You get them for posting stuff, and we can also take them away too (Mod's), or give you some.....

Moderated by octopi:

here have a bit. +1

[the_binary_soul]

aahhh.....thats a good idea...

thanx

[AsianSensation]

bits are used to buy special effects to add to your name, you can also use them to exchange for stuff like email at compsci.ca or web-hosting at compsci.ca

[Mazer]

bits are great! more bits = more power! so go and make really cool stuff and get bits for it!

[the_binary_soul]

huh, that's pretty cool...... though I haven't really made any programs worth posting.....generally just stuff for school, and tank wars but that was when I just starting so its not great.

[Tony]

you could also bribe people into doing stuff with bits

We might introduce new stuff to do with bits in the future, just to piss Mazer off for randomly giving away all of his bits all of the time

[Mazer]

hey now, there's no need to be hating the BitGiver. Every time i gave bits it was toward a worthy cause. for example:
- the givedodgebits foundation
- the time i gave dauntless bits for reciting the nick chant
- the time i gave my compsci teacher bits (because he's my teacher, duh.., )
- the time i gave naoki bits, so he could support his family and at the same time continue the LFK OTD (btw, when are we expecting a new one?)
- and many many more... (i'll try to come up with some examples later)

but if you want me to buy something from the shop, you just have to restock your supply of dan's spelling mistakes book.

Mazer has been awarded with a Book Of Typos so that he can continue to randomly give out bits that would ultimatly lead to world peace

[Mazer]

HUZZAAAAAAHHH!!!!!

uh... wtf, how do i read it?

[Tony]

you dont It has soo many typos, it is impossible to read book's content

[Mazer]

oh well. i feel much cooler just having it in my inventory. this s a graet horon for me.

[Maverick]
