Post count fix

Hello, everyone at SMF. In my forums, there are many ways to increase post count, like playing games I make. But they can earn enough posts to get over 100,000 probably... but whenever that happens, SMF transforms their post count to "I am a geek!!"

Is there a way around this? It's quite annoying.

Edit: I hate easter eggs.

Nope, really not except for manually changing their post counts.  I would turn off the post counts in the arcade for starters.

I don't really use the Arcade, I use a board I made for playing the games. I have a whole board dedicated to adding posts, actually!

Anyway, I'd like to know... why did SMF add this in the first place?

It is an easter egg..  he did not add it.. the folks at simplemachines did.   There are a few more hidden here and there..   once in awhile we stumble upon them.

There is no way to change it
