Even better than First Post. Introducing COMMENT ZERO
Niero | 4:10 PM on 09.04.2007 74 comments




We just added a little note next to the comment time stamp (and due to the way arrays are displayed in PHP), the first comment record is actually displayed as a zero instead of the number one. Instead of correcting this by adding everything with plus one, Tom suggested that zero was way more l337 anyway and we agreed that it shall remain.

Another Destructoid Industries innovation, brought to you by the letter Beer.

You guys should patent the use of Comment Zero.

MAD CASH. Everyone at least posts first comment like 3-4 times. So that Zero is a lock.

"Instead of correcting this by adding everything with plus one, Tom suggested that zero was way more l337 anyway and we agreed that it shall remain."

Now you just need to work on making the red "Comments" line read "0" until there are two comments. The noobs will be all "Yeah bitches! I'm all fast and have nothing better to do! First poSHIT WHAT?!"

Namelessted's Destructoid Blog
holy shit Niero, you have just destroyed the comment system. Well, I am going to abuse it anyway. I would never want to count how many comments there are but now i can just go to the end of every post and say "comment #" and I will be a douchebag for doing it. I am so worthless it isn't even funny.
SLiFE's Destructoid Blog
We just have to keep the comments coming til it rolls over back to zero.
Brad Rice's Destructoid Blog
Way to fail, Lemon. Niero, let me guess: this was so that you didn't have to count the 333rd comment in the Halo giveaway.
Eschatos's Destructoid Blog

 about me

Funny story: I run Destructoid. I'm your plucky webmaster.

Not so funny story: While testing new site features I somehow deleted my bio. Awesome! Will write another soon. The short version: I love running this site and will until they drag me away.
