It has not been removed, it simply has not been enabled in WP 2.0 yet.

One of the definitions of a fnord is "metasyntactic variable" - something that is a stand-in for something else no matter where you find it. This was more of a description than a custom rank for me.

^i think my fave definition you provided was "the time in between the tick and the tock",or something along those lines. :)

IIRC, it was one of the features that was implemented, but 'turned off' during the move to minimize the chances of anything going wrong.

it's said that it will come back soon but i don't know when that is. i've got a whole bunch of potential one's i could use saved up.

Fnord is the space between the pixels on your screen.

Fnord is all that is left after dividing by zero.

Fnord is the illusion of consciousness.

Fnord is the echo of silence.

Fnord taught Chuck Norris to roundhouse kick.

This is a dilemma, Fnord.

Did Fnord invent the roundhouse kick itself? Or who taught Fnord?


Fnord?
