Black Bar of Doom: 3 New Victims!

Join me in congratulating our members Regenmacher & GradyPhilpott on there recent Black Bar's of Doom.



Seems like every week we are coming across more and more of these Bars.

So Congrats to our two fine members on their accomplishment!



If your not familiar with the Black Bar of Doom, or the Post Bar itself, I direct you to this link.

Post Bar Infromation

This is attained by breaking the post bar. You can do this by reaching 110 Applauses. Not an easy task.

AHH. Such a shame. We will never hear from them again now.

Congrats guys.

WAY TO GO!!!

When is the Wake?

Semper

So thats what happens when its broken,it turns black??
interesting but anyway congrats you guys!!!
can the bar be refilled again or does it stay black?

Congratulations to both of you and welcome to the club! You guys bring refreshments next week and be prepared to go through the gruesome initiation!

I can't wait!

Alas Tormentor I believe the bar goes to the great bar resting place in the sky for all eternity,,,



Semper

Thanks, but I still say it reflects a lack of motivation to make a graphic for the 11th scale.

Congratulations!

No surprises here. You're both excellent members.

Indeed, I suppose it was inevitable that this would happen.

It is quite the accomplishment on any level, but considering the amount of posts you have Regenmacher, it is much more impressive.

Congrats!

Well it wouldn't be the ATS way to leave anyone out. So we also should congratulate soficrow on her () Black Bar of Doom aswell.



Congrats!

Ed: Sorry sofi!

Congrats, sofi! You're gonna need that party, believe me!

They just grow up so fast nowadays don't they?

Mazeltov to all three of you...I think you get satin jackets or something...might have been a muffin basket...either way congrats.

Sofi too? w00t!

Three's a charm. Welcome to the club, Sofi!






Note to self: Get more fezzes and decoder rings made and pass the hat for donations to restock the fridge in the BBoD member's lounge...

Thanks to all. I noticed it myself early this morning, some six hours after the fact.

Actually it was mrwupy who at 0133Z did the final deed.

My thanks to all mods, and FSMEs who felt that my work was good enough for an applause.

Reganmacher's accomplishment is indeed impressive given his small number of posts, but when one considers how much hot water I'm in around here, I was lucky to last long enough for this to happen.

Who woulda thunk it? A broken post bar is a badge of honor. Maybe a Purple Heart would be appropriate.

My apologies sofi. Hell, it was a 50/50 shot and I went for it.

A mistake I will never make again. For you anyways!

Congrats to the three of you! You all definitely deserved it.

Chissler, did you just happen across these broken bars, or what? Is there a way to see how many applauses a member has?

I was wondering the same thing. I know that you can right click on the bar to see the properties of the bar, which reveals the color range and the count range, but do you spend time checking these things out?

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Thanks all.

And hey chissler - no problemo. Like you said, a 50-50 shot. Although I woulda thunk the name "sofi" was a dead giveaway.

Thanks jsobecky - and yeah, the darker the red color, the more applauses.

...I actually got my black bar a while ago, and complained about losing my nice dark rich red bar. That's how I found out about what it means. Then I asked if I would ever get my colors back.
