It's usually used in place of the word "end", but it's acceptable to use it anywhere at MX, for some reason.

Same with "++", it's just an MX thing.

yeah i know all my friends got like 28 and up, the time is really what killed me too, but i think i can raise it quite i few points if i take some classes before i take it.

that's crazy, i've been reading MX forever i've just never bothered to post.

it's usually used to indicate an action.
and ++ is used to indicate positive rep.

It started because of jarviss' way of telling stories. e.g. :

"Hey, you'll never guess what that reminded me of. Once, when I was young, I got pushed over by some other kid, and I was all like [unhappy]"Awww, what'd you do that for?" [/unhappy], and he was like.." etc

Basically a take on tags. It's been used so much, though, and confused so badly with /me that hardly anyone uses it properly any more.

I recognize that one, and also "Postcount ++" for spamming and "Overdone thread ++" for obvious reasons

Usually people in the west take the ACTs, and in the east the SATs. It probably depends on the location of the school you're trying to get into.

Hello

/late

^ is a lazy way* of saying that what you said was late.

*it should be [late]Hello[/late].

/me is late

^comes from the IRC command, which would show up on the screen as "*your name* is late".

/walks in late

^makes no sense at all, and it's beginning to get annoying how badly people screw it up.

++ also, it came along way before rep, from coding.

here let me try...

oh i get it


/confused

Sorry :(

wait no...

Sorry :([/QUOTE]

My apologies, I was typing up my second response while you all carried on replying, so I didn't see this. It wasn't directed at you anyway, I just happened to be quoting you.

:)

/has to poop

Correct use?

No..../

C++ is the origin of ++, as ++ indicates an increment of one.

Lucky you

We've barely had any snow and it's like 50 degrees! What the fuc[COLOR=White]k[/COLOR] :angry:

It's about -40 here and lots of snow.

Paraphrasing of an old text message:

[quote] We apologise for any inconvenience, but Musicianforums.com is currently experiencing technical problems, and has gone down on most users. You however, should still be able to access the site. This is because not even MX would go down on an ugly bastard like you.

It's abnormally warm here.

The snow just melted were I live. It rained yesterday.

[QUOTE=lunch998]It's abnormally warm here.[/QUOTE]
Same here, I find warm winters to be depressing.

it isn't snowing right now, but it's da*n cold......-28 I think it is

But it's typical weather for Canada

It's cold here, just how I like it. I like being back home, it's too warm down south (Leeds).

[QUOTE=Kage]Lucky you[/QUOTE]


No, not lucky me. Its 22 degrees outside, and I don't use a conventional heating source for our house, we have to use a wood stove...I am freezing my fu[SIZE=2]ckin[/SIZE]' as[SIZE=2]s[/SIZE] off right now.

We have about a foot of snow here and it's **** cold. I hate Canadian winters :(
