+1 I have learnt quite a bit from your questions on diagnosing/performance tools and similar! Very worthy for this award!

+1 from me, there is barely a question I answer where I haven't seen your name retagging or doing something!

What is with these invalid flags?
@Kcotreau - I try to bother the mods as little as possible (now!), Sorry if I missed a bit, I have skim-read as there is a lot here... I go by this rule... If I can do something myself e.g. vote to close/move/whatever, I do. However, in addition, if a post is VERY bad and bad for the community (e.g. discussing piracy, hacking etc.) then I will also flag for mods just in case it escapes 5 votes... Mod's volunteer - I don't want to overload them with stuff that we can do on our own! You earn the ability to close/delete yourself - have fun using it!

Why can't I register on SuperUser without OpenID?
@Liam - I am very confused, but, try clearing your cookies and come back to this site, then, click login and try logging in through Google or wherever you did it the first time... log in to Google or whatever page you go to and wait to be forwarded here. If you then see Your name on the title bar, you are logged in.

Why was the question "Why are there 8 bits per byte?" closed?
I edited my MSO question (added a few paragraphs), I guess I do agree and I suppose that is a valid answer for this question about why was it closed, but hopefully you can like the "spirit" of my MSO question about changing it to allow situations and questions such as this.

What do you want Super User Blog to test with SSD technology?
You lucky bugger - or are they expecting them back?... Right, time to tweet... "Testing workstations ~£5,000+ - anyone want me to test theirs?"

How do I create the Super User Logo in text?
I have edited it to be more question-ish. I think this will be a good thread, who can create the logo closest to the real one!

It's no worse than the "How do I create ASCII smiles" thread!
