Its the "V Bulletin" software having a fit.
Theres a few other guys with silly post counts..
I think Wout has the same problem

The Admin are looking for a patch.

You have 836 messages stored, of a total 65535 allowed

Thinking about hosting E-bay.

65535 equals the time out count of a 16bit counter minus 1 (2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2 -1). Indeed a software glitch.

In addition to Ray: 65535 = FF FF (hexadecimal) = 1111 1111 1111 1111 (binary) --- 16 Bit / 2 Bytes (or to be precise: 2 octets)
-> typical software problems

Tobias, Raymond

I think thats just coïncedence

-for real now-

I can see it now, you guys were the ones getting the leftover points that I missed on my math exams ( which would mean 2-wout , 8- raymond)

I thought Wout's silly post count was quite accurate
