Akismet - Big 2,000

Caught Spam
Akismet has caught 2,000 spam for you since you first installed it.
WOW! Without you Akismet, and of course, all of you great spammers, this could have never been achieved!
Now spammers… go drown yourself in a mosquito infected pool or hang yourself from an iceberg off of our melting ice caps.

Sexiest Developer

In an effort partly driven to keep this blog at least 5% active I am trying to blog a little more. Here I will be talking about MyBB’s very own “Sexiest Developer“! Which of course, as you all know, is me!

Recently, it came to my attention that the next contest for MyBB Fans didn’t have enough prizes in the case that the date was guessed before the MyBB 1.4 beta starts. I gladly came to the rescue! I am a prize… Well, Sort of.

The prizes listed above will be increased if and only if the winner submitted the winning guess before the MyBB 1.4 beta program starts. In this case, the winner will have the choice of ONE of these prizes:

  • $20USD via PayPal and an additional $10USD and a signed photo of Tikitiki, the “sexiest developer” by mail
  • One 3-Year new domain registration (choice of .com, .net, .org, .info, .co.uk)
  • Three 1-Year new domain registrations (choice of .com, .net, .org, .info, .co.uk)
  • One 2-Year, and One 1-year new domain registrations (choice of .com, .net, .org, .info, .co.uk)

These will be accompanied by a 2-year premium membership and one or two email addresses (winner’s choice).

Of course the team loved the idea and were jealous that they weren’t eligible for the prize. Some even thought about quiting if I didn’t send them their own personal copy! I know I’m just soo irresistible huh!
And once again Tikitiki saves the day

Your and You’re

Recently Chris Boulton and I had a 101 lesson on Your and You’re grammar. It went something along the lines of this:

Chris Boulton says:
Your and You’re
Chris Boulton says:

Chris Boulton says:
You’re is the shortened version of “you are”
Chris Boulton says:

Chris Boulton says:
instead of saying you are tikitiki, I could say you’re tikitiki
Ryan says:

Ryan says:

Chris Boulton says:

Chris Boulton says:
