    vBulletin Easter-Eggs

    Just wondering, but has anyone found a vBulletin Easter-Egg? If you have, tell us what it said.

    Some of the phrases have interesting text and some snippets of code are amusingly and correctly commented.

      "vBulletin Tip #*Insert Number*: It would not be very helpful to merge this item with itself."

      Or something like that. I can't remember what the number was. It SHOULD be 1337. But thats just me.

        Just take a look through the PHP code's comments. You'll find piles upon piles of developer commentary.

          Found it, it's:

          vBulletin Tip #42: Not much would be accomplished by merging this item with itself.

                Seriously? >.>

                An easter egg is like a secret thing in something. They have them in (almost) everything.

                Like the spinning fish game in winamp.

                    Easter egg for example would be like loading index.php?session[egg] which then displays a picture of all the developers.

                    (above is made up example doh)

                      In that case, vBulletin *does* have a nice little phone-home easter egg.

                          Yeah 42 makes more sense. I just didn't know it was 42 before.

                            It's rather difficult to put truly surprising easter eggs into a visible source application
