Commonly said phrases lose you big score/ new phrases gain you some score. If you get into negative, you cannot speak but slowly regain score over time until you are back in the positive.

I've been considering a similar concept to this for the longest time - in fact, while I was still in high school I designed a rudimentary version of it in C++/Oracle to analyse all incoming TCP/IP data... worked well to minimise incoming bullshit sent by classmates, but the CPU cycles it stole were horrifying. This one however seems to be, as they say, "the duck's nuts", so kudos for pushing to develop such a tool. I'll definitely be playing around with it in the near future, I think.

Wouldn't be that hard, define $text "a" post $text define $text "$text + a" And Repeat. Mind I know nothing of coding. (HTML doesn't count in my opinion) Also, on 4chan, Dunbar's number is equal to 0.

Wouldn’t be that hard,

define $text “a”
post $text
define $text “$text + a”

And Repeat. Mind I know nothing of coding. (HTML doesn’t count in my opinion)
