Re: On Team-BHP's 16th birthday, some fun & interesting trivia on our community

Just love this

Reminds me of the comment made by my Six Sigma guru many, many years ago - "When it comes to quality, there is no such thing as partial, nearly, just. One should look at quality ONLY in binary terms - it's there or not!
"
We already know what it's like on Team-BHP

While super kudos to Gannu for picking it up in rocket 4 mins, but hats off to the post spotter who pointed out the missing full-stop.

Hereby for an introduction thread title, 27 Bhpians have been mass condored.



People wondering about the meaning of condored,

We have a member who goes by the call sign Condor. He used to tell folks they have reposted a post that's already been posted (wow, that was a mouthful). When other people started doing the same, they would say "you've been Condored"

You had me in splits with that "mass condored"

Regarding how the term came about, I used to try and keep the thread clean, without repeats. Not just jokes, but anything that gets repeated becomes stale. And then someone coined the term.

However, this time it was more of curiosity about how many people used this very common and almost unimaginative phrase in their intro's. (common with budding software guys when they start their learning journey).

. Well, here is some trivia-on-trivia.

Ajmat was the one who coined the term in 2008:

And there are currently 354 posts with the word "condored" in them (these include private forums, so you might see a lesser number).

The first post congratulating on 16th Birthday is dated 14th February 2020.
Means on this year Valentine's Day, it has attained Adulthood. (I do not mean that we can commit Adultery now). Well tamed for last 18 years, I think the forum has matured into finest community.
