Hurrah! Huzzah! Fantastic!

I was hoping that mod #1337 would be a good one... and it was!

[Nathaniel]

Nice mod! And congradulations on the first post.

[chrisb]

screen shots would be nice, so people can see what it really does in live versions

It restored the "leet" easter egg in SMF 2 and removes it in SMF 1. What it does it when a user reaches at 1337 number of posts is shows "leet" instead of 1337 under his/her post count.

[SleePy]

Why 
It adds the leet easter egg back in for everything above SMF 2.0, otherwise it removes it.
Not very useful screenshots

[ccbtimewiz]

LOL.

It's mod #1337. xDDDD

That's plain awesome. Nice mod!

[Basie]

Why the hell anyone would want their poscount to say 'leet' is beyond me.

I'm glad it was removed from 2.0

[Dragooon]

Thats why its an easter egg

[ccbtimewiz]

Why don't you take the 'leet' modification further and make post count say 'leet' regardless of your post count. That would at least share the Easter egg with the largest amount of members.

/sarcasm

Anyway shouldn't it be l33t?

You mean 1337?

At least this mod spares mod authors from being singled out as having written the most useless mod package. No wonder it was released anonymously.

It was released from the whole customize team (all customizers did a little part in getting this up including testing).

That isn't the purpose of 1337.

Why the hell anyone would want their poscount to say 'leet' is beyond me.

I'm glad it was removed from 2.0

Which is why it was also made to remove it in 1.0 and 1.1 versions. This way those who want to remove it can do so easily. But some of us like the 1337 and want it back

[SleePy]

Please don't say it like that. Its fairly rude.

A mod is a mod, I have seen others change not even 1 line of text to accomplish something. Its still a mod.
We don't have intentions of bloating this mod.

[karlbenson]

Yeah as you know. I've got a mod which adds 1 character.

[Deaks]

come on guys why no-one want this mod 40 downloads in a week man thats bad, sheesh even I contributed in making this mod and I am not a modder

I use practically every mod out there, but this is one I will pass on... However, just reading the above quote was worth trying to figure out what this was about!  Great stuff!

Gotta go back to my corner now cause I'm a n00b!

[SleePy]

Those who ask us to approve their mods now, will end up waiting longer...

[Fustrate]

Then could you please give my democratic "leet" modification package the special treatment that it deserves for a person of my stature? Any time in the next few minutes will be sufficient.



Sleepy, you really must be sleepy to not notice the satire here. Do you think that I would bother to submit a mod package to make the post count always read "leet?"  In case you still don't get it, it was a joke!

Your stature? As in height?

[Deprecated]

stature

1.   the height of a human or animal body.
2.   the height of any object.
3.   degree of development attained; level of achievement: a minister of great stature.

I'm getting tired of this discussion. Either nobody else has a sense of humor or we speak different languages.

[Fustrate]

I speak Californian English, we know a lot fewer meanings of words that you'd think we just make up new ones for things we don't know how to describe.

[ethankcvds]

I found this mod very useful because i received errors about Leet when I went to view a users profile who had 1,337 posts. Now we can view those Profiles again.

I don't quite understand what you mean. You received errors viewing a profile for somebody with 1337 posts and you installed the mod and it fixed the errors? Or you removed the mod and that fixed the errors?

I'm just concerned because if there is some sort of error then somebody should look into it and see if either the mod package or SMF should be changed to fix the error.

[ethankcvds]

Probably a theme that I installed was causing the error. But I installed this mod and it fixed the error.

[Burke ♞ Knight]

1. Love this mod.
2. Love the fact that it is also mod 1337. LOL

[andy40]

can someone tell me what this mod does please

[dr.wills]

I don't even know what this Easter Egg is. Can anyone give me a clue

[Smitten]

Can explain me what is Leet Easter Egg? Sorry, i don't understand.

Thanks!

Diego, from Argentina.

[Deaks]

As its been stated in this topic already, in versions 1.0.x and 1.1.x of SMF when you get 1337 posts it shows the word leet, people didnt like this and some even thought the site was hacked, so in 2.0 of smf it was removed.

This mod if you install on a 1.0.x or 1.1.x forum, it will remove the code that makes 1337 show as leet, if you are using a 2.0 forum it will add the code that makes 1337 say leet

[Masterd]

I'm very sorry for bumping this old topic, but isn't this mod hardcoded?

[Deaks]

yep but its hardcoded in 1.1.12 anyway

[Masterd]

yep but its hardcoded in 1.1.12 anyway

It's also hardcoded in SMF 2.0. That's against the rules.

[Deaks]

well i made the mod and I did bring that up when I made it in the former smf team chatroom (they changed the team room after january incident) it was oked as its an easter egg, and most of the easter eggs in smf are hardcoded.

[sharks]

I just noticed that leet error in number of posts in one of my member's profile. I was shocked and a bit scared to be honest, as i had thought my forum was hacked or had some database errors, although i take great care to run maintenance every few days.

Just to make sure so i don't have to go through any of these bad surprises, which you call easter eggs... what others are there hard-coded into SMF 1.1.x?

Thanks for this mod, by the way. It's bloody damn needed.

[Arantor]

That's the only directly user visible one that might appear in the forum IIRC, the others have to be actually triggered.

[Diego Andrés]

updated for smf 2.1

[Ricsca]

I don't understand what this mod does.

[Arantor]

You're not missing much. Basically, if the user's post count is 1337, it changes it to say 'leet' as the programmer joke rather than 1337.
