    Default Oh my god it's Boxing Day can you believe it? I can, because I know what that is!

    I, Lone Wolf Leonhart, know that Boxing Day is a holiday celebrated after Christmas Day, occurring on the second day of Christmastide (26 December).

    I'm also aware that though it originated as a holiday to give gifts to the poor, today Boxing Day is primarily known as a shopping holiday. You could definitely say that LWL knows that it originated in Great Britain and is celebrated in a number of countries that previously formed part of the British Empire. I, the great Lone Wolf Leonhart, also discovered that the attached bank holiday or public holiday may take place on 28 December if necessary to ensure it falls on a weekday and that Boxing Day is also concurrent with the Catholic holiday Saint Stephen's Day.

    Let LWL educate you on this too: In parts of Europe, such as several regions of Spain, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, the Netherlands, Italy, Poland, Slovakia, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Belgium, Norway, and Ireland, 26 December is Saint Stephen's Day, which is considered the second day of Christmas.

    I will also definitely remember what Boxing Day is for at least 8 years.

    Signed: L. W. LEONHART

    Bold of you to assume you have a choice in the matter, dear fellow. You will post from now until Armageddon.

    If boxing day is about giving to the poor, why am I getting nothing?

    It means people of poor financial means, not people of poor hygiene.

    Hi, Psychotic here! So I've just experimented with this post and here's what you can actually do on vBulletin:

    1. Make a duplicate of someone's old post, so there are two identical copies of the same post in the thread
    2. Make a new post of your own in the same thread
    3. Merge their duplicated post with your own brand new post
    4. When merging two posts, you can choose either of the two posters to be the poster of your new post. So that's either yourself or the person whose post you copied. In this case I chose LWL.
    5. But you can choose which of the posts you want to survive, to become the final merged post. I chose my own post this afternoon rather than LWL's older post.
    6. Therefore it looks like LWL is posting right now when actually it's me and he hasn't even logged in.
    7. Sorry and thank you to LWL for being my guinea pig I promise to never do this to you again.
    8. I am absolutely not going to use this newfound power for good. Any and all posts on this forum by any members - apart from LWL because of my previous promise - could have been made by me. Trust no-one apart from him.
