    They should have stopped at version 1.3.37

      1.3.37 is reserved for the OpenBSD fork.

    Yes, the "beauty of open source" is that people waste time and energy on an obsolete product. Reminds me of Microsoft.

    You probably deserve them for being as kind as to point out that the apache HTTP server isn't finished... :)

    I regularly get either 5 or 15, usually 15.

    I think it's because I tend to comment in bursts - nothing for a week, then 2 or 3 at a time, and then only when I have something useful to say. Except for the odd sarcastic or joking comment, or if I'm heavily medicated.

    Plus I don't log in all that much, so when I do I have like 3 comments all at +5, or something like that, and bingo 15 mods.

    Posting anon, but if you want to look for patterns in my comments my username is b4dc0d3r. I tend to get in to conversations late so most are un-moderated (+1 for logged in, with karma bonus). So it only takes 3 people willing to waste points on me to get +5.

    Since you imply that you still have one, I'm assuming that it's not being hosted on Geocities.

    Dear god, I hoped you were joking.

    Slashdot's running on 1.3.41.

    This was obviously a joke. Slashdot is still run by a mess of perl scripts. They've yet to drag themselves into early last decade.
