I got a fret!

octatonic

Whoohoo!

I got a solitary one from somewhere too.  I don't who or why but it was nice and made me feel like I was a little part of things here.

I seem to have acquired some more too, which is nice!

Just 2 LOL's for me, so whilst overall I'm not very interesting, proportionally I am funny as f*ck.

I used to have a fret, like you; but then I took a palm in the face.

More like 40 palms now...

But you still get to top the leader board, so all is good, no.

So ....... still the same question  ....... what the smeg is a fret???? (within the context of forum posts?)

It's a non specific goodwill currency of the forum. It is the sum total of your LOL. Wow and Wisdom minus your facepalms, but above that it's a bit of fun and not meant to be taken too seriously.

I tried LOLing someone and got a page with come code in it ... wasn't C but could have been some of this nasty script stuff you new-fangled types write clicked the back button and the screen was restored with the post's LOL count set to 1 (it had been 0). So it worked, after a fashion. BTW I'm using IceWeasel on Debian 2.6

@Phil_aka_Pip if it happens again could you copy the text and message it to me?

Ta!

@monquixote I just tried WOWing your post (at home, Chrome on Windoze XP), and I'm not seeing the same thing so it might be an IceWeasel/Firefox issue.

Interesting. 

Do you have Javascript disabled at work?

Is there anyway to own one of those?! It's mega cute!

I wants it!

Or maybe a Quokka or Red Panda!

I wants them!

In other news - I appear to have been fretted...

I remember that they're a great fun female lead band who had some fun albums!

I want to make a joke about fretting you but without me sounding pervy and ever so slightly rapey.

I'm trailing behind on the fret awards front, so I promise I'm going to have to make a better effort in future not to disappoint.
