Just posted a reply to another thread then decided to edit (add to) my response. When I reposted, I got the following message.
User iTanker earned 1 banana points! Total now is 45 points. User John Mack lost 1 banana points! Total now is 82 points.
Who is iTanker and why is he stealing my bananas?

********"Babies don't cost money, they MAKE money." - Jerri Blank********
in this post I will try to lose all my bananas.
EDIT: yes, it looks like you can in fact keep editing forever until all your bananas are gone. i don't have the patience to do this 157 times though. i wonder if i would go into the negative if i kept going after that.
sorry, guys, can't seem to figure out why this would happen. trying it now myself...edit
Yay! If I post ONE more message I'm at 1000 pts. King Kong. Yippee!!
EDIT #1: I'd like to thank the little people without whom I would not have made such a significant accomplishment :-)
Rats... back to 999 :-(
EDIT #2: Looks like we might be designated different dingers. Mine is "BananaMan":
User BananaMan earned 1 banana points! Total now is 132 points. User aadpepsi lost 1 banana points! Total now is 999 points.
I think I'm now at 998 pts.
EDIT #3: Yup, at 998 pts. Now I'm going to be 997. So close, yet so far!!
yeah, i have a designated dinger too. his name is ibd_orangutan, and he's benefiting every time i edit my post.
... i must find him and kill him.
Haha ridiculous, ridiculous. I think I'm approaching 500 myself. I can't keep up with the likes of you, aadpepsi!
This is bizarre.
Why do we all have personal designated dingers?
Are we experiencing some kind of parallel universe?
Do iTanker, BananaMan and ibd_orangutan all know each other? Are they covertly messing with us? OMG...
Which monkey has 10 pts out there? Please volunteer your services to EDIT your posts and find out if it's possible to go into the negative! Let's do it :-)
that you haven't been a secret beneficiary of someone else's benevolent edits? You might really only be at 970 posts....
First comes mistrust, then fear, then the suffering. Everything that we held true will come under suspicion. This is how capitalism unravels.
The end is nigh!
mine is ibd_orangutan
.
Mine is unknown

Damn, It's "mylifeishell". Well, buddy, mine is hell now that you've taken my point away!!!!
********"Babies don't cost money, they MAKE money." - Jerri Blank********
your life is hell because you lost a point/banana at the wallstreetoasis.com discussion forum?
And the winner is...
Mylifeishell
Damn, mylifeishell has two people giving them free bananas now. Any other duplicates?
Oh Mark, I'm not that much of a loser. T'was a pun.
