1) You don't have to ask you just know 2) You wear your "refresh" button out on your screen to see where the next post is 3) You obesses over the number of names that you have or don't have on your "Real Hatracker" list. 4) In BCS fashion, you begin adding "quality jatraquero" points for famous hatrackers you've met. Examples: Ralphie 200pts TomD 100 Celia60 50 OSC 10 KACard 150 Bob_Scopatz 95 Papa Moose 170 5) You have participated in no less than 4 homosexuality threads and the smiley argument and/or you have 200 posts on the hug thread and participated in the smiley argument

I guess I'm not one because I don't know what BCS means. But maybe I am one because I finally went to strongbad.

BCS= Bowl Championship Series for college football. If a team beats a current top 10 football team then it gets get an extra bonus known as a "quality win" in the points cacluations to see where they rank.

OSC just plain doesn't post enough. He isn't a true jatraquero. I bet he misses most of the in jokes that have developed on his forum even if he owns it. KACard does post more, and is one of our illustrious moderators so in Hatrack term's she's got a higher points rating.
Ceila you get your points for evilness alone <grin> AJ

celia, edited appropriately, to protect your privacy. You have posted that AIM on hatrack before or used it in AIM chat otherwise I wouldn't have it though.

Well, I don't see myself as being worth quite that many points, either, but [fodder for out-of-context thread] I'm extremely honored that Ralphie is the only person on top of me [/fodder for out-of-context thread].

yeah, i know, but not in a long, long time. i decided it would be easier on me to swap the forum to weaselsootmouth than to try swapping my friends to a reference they wouldn't get.
10) saxon75 will never be real.
have i? or have other people? edit: i only found 3 of me using it, and 2 of those were in 2002!)

d00d. Kristine got more points by meeting me than I did by meeting her.
That's whack*.
And there's no way I'm going to allow Squirrel to be pissed off at me for any reason. She's given birth to two children. I whine when I have to pass up dessert, much less human life forms from my nether regions.
(*by which I mean KICKIN RAD.)

I think the true Jatraquero/a, before clicking "add reply" takes a deep breath and thinks "What would Jatraq do?"

I think you are really a jatraquero when you first have the thought "they shouldn't have posted that!" <laughs> It means you feel you own the place enough to know what is acceptable and unacceptable for someone else to say on hatrack. Posts: 968 | Registered: Sep 2003

-1) You own the rights to jatraqueros.com and jatraqueras.com. I expect royalties from everyone who posted in this thread! If not, I'll be on you like the RIAA on a 12-year-old girl.

13) You've been around long enough to complain about all n00bs and pine for the "good old days."

I actually went through a time where I didn't know what jatraquero was supposed to mean. I still read the j as what English speakers would consider a /y/ sound. I asked what a meme was. I guess one many levels I'm still not- I lack the one ness of acrodecryption.
But I have gone through the realizing I can agree with people that I feel I have been flamed by. Yeah, I know I haven't ever really been flamed, or I'd have changed my ID and come back as a guy. Or something.
Also, I've never been Trogdor the Burninator.

Odoul's the short quality jatraquero list was given strictly for EXAMPLES. If I had started putting in every jatraquero I wanted to, the list would have gone on for pages and defeated the point of the thread. I was hoping that the readers would want to pick their own quality jatrarqueros and award them points. You could then lobby for inclusion. As far as I'm concerned it is perfectly legit.

You've always stood out in my mind, Jenny. Although it might just be the association with "sexy boots." Me, I'm doomed. Confusing me with Storm Saxon is a Hatrack meme at this point. (Or do I flatter myself?)

People are always IMing me asking me if I'm jeniwren. In the past I've even gotten emails about posts or other random stuff. I get all excited about getting Hatrack mail until I realize I have no idea what they're talking about.

I'm not sure if Ralphie should be worth that many points. So many people have met her, her point value should be drastically lower. You shouldn't be worth that many points if your easy ... er, I mean easily met.

Then why the frell is OSC so low? I mean, he has a whole "other side" dedicated to him whereas I only have a small fan base of newbies ready to jump me for the soul purpose of going up the chain in popularity.
One less T_Smith is an oppurtunity for a newbie to become famous.

XIX) [or whatever number we are on.] You always post where you are going to be in the hopes of meeting up with another Jatraquero. (PS, I'll be in the bathroom in 5 minutes. Anyone else going to be there?)
XX) Your day automatically brightens when Bob makes a list, cause you know its going to be funny.
XXI) You know what God thinks, cause you've read the threads.
