Heh... I don't think I joined the forum until about year after I started playing around with MT. I lurked for a long time just watching development and trying to figure out if I could use this thing to play games online or not. ;)

Random Forum Based Fact:

As of this post, the word "macro" has 29512 matches in the forum search.

Whereas "marco" (a somewhat common misspelling) comes up with 187 matches.

And every time I see that misspelling I want to respond to the posts with:
"POLO!"
Thus far, I have resisted the temptation.

Maybe there is room for a game called "Macro Polo" ?

I'm actually fairly impressed that it's that low of a typo. of course, people have the benefit of going back and correcting it as well, if they so choose.

Speaking of typos, I originally joined the forums as rkathey. I continually mistyped rptools as rptroll. I finally let the troll out of my head and changed my userid. I haven't had the problem since.
