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!

ximbau always lets us know what he/she's doing: 5 actions!
For example, like this:
* ximbau learned opengl in college with my CG classes
Also, Richardcavell_ tells us what's up with 1 actions.

masterchief talks to him/herself a lot. He/She wrote over 5 lines in a row 3 times!
Another lonely one was MaddHatter, who managed to hit 1 times.

masterchief has quite a potty mouth. 0.6% words were foul language.
ville also makes sailors blush, 0.1% of the time.
