pauln Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 This is not a SET joke - my avatar has one blue ball under it. How long until I have two? One blue ball Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Maybe it's like those stars that used to appear next to the P in Playboy covers. You know what that meant! So Paul, been hanging out with any moderators lately? LOL Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 omigod, I have 7 balls, that's gonna hurt! M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 looks like the 'balls' follows number of posts, the blues ones are for 250's, green for 1000's, don't know about gold. I have 4600 and have three blue, three green and one gold showing. So looks like first gold is at the 4000 mark. Just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott0527 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Damn! How did we ever get by without balls in the last forum? Edit. Looks like I'm going to need a new avatar too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j-malotky Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Great. Now there is more incentive for people to write more mindless posts to get there counter up. to get MORE BALLS. JM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olorin Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Michael, you're close, but the meter doesn't quite follow that. If it did, I'd have a green instead of just three blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-MAN Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 That series of "balls" is an electronic blabbermouth indicator calibrated for linear display and color coded for discrete stages (or quantified levels) of blathering. DM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 so has anyone untangled the mystery of the ball count? Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-MAN Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 They are the equivelent of "Cool Newbie" and "No Life", etc. I don;t know them all, but I think they correspond directly with those "old" labels. DM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 but at what post count is one granted a 'fresh' ball? Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travisc Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Michael those are not gold balls they are brass. As in "that guys got some brass balls" hey are you looking at my balls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 We all know the source of blue balls from the days of our youth, and how age grants us the brass ones, but what of the 'green balls'? Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BobG Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Green balls? That one's easy. One is the six and the one with the stripe is the 14. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2K Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Not sure, but I think they're there for the moderator. Looks like she's been breakin' some balls here today ( billiard related). Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travisc Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 even if you have one green ball you should seek medical advice immediately[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedball Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 What about the yellow ones......lol. Some big shot executive upper management big cheese white collar president at Klipsch probably got a big $ bonus for coming up with the colored ball system...[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleve Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Oh great. Almost 550 posts since December of 2003 and I'm back to "newbie" status. [:'(] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
