Other interesting numbers
Nice opers here, no one got kicked!
Strange, no op was given on #C++-general!
Wow, no op was taken on #C++-general!
PirocaGigante always lets us know what he/she's doing: 4 actions!
For example, like this:
     * PirocaGigante hopes their first iterations end up full of "unsafe" code. *evil chuckle*

Also, Alipha tells us what's up with 1 actions.
mort talks to him/herself a lot. He/She wrote over 5 lines in a row 4 times!
Another lonely one was PJBoy, who managed to hit 1 times.
Nobody is foul-mouthed in #C++-general! Get out much?
