Around early 2024, above or below the Square of Publicity were 'counter' scripts, usually run by [[Fernozzle]], hosted a linearly or logarithmically increasing number of an arbitrary unit or scale. The most common of these were "(user) has baked (number) of cupcakes" or "(user) has typed (number) times". Counters usually have a bad reputation due to being considered 'eyesores' or being annoyances to other users. | Around early 2024, above or below the Square of Publicity were 'counter' scripts, usually run by [[Fernozzle]], hosted a linearly or logarithmically increasing number of an arbitrary unit or scale.
