When I press Ctrl-Alt-Shift-H the word "hippos!" appears in the chat. What is this? An easter egg? o.o Try pressing it multiple times if it doesn't work at once.

Yep! It's an easter hippo. Hippos are the guardians of all that is righteous (or silly) in SL.
Since I'm feeling especially cruel, I'll give you the link to the forum thread that started it all:

/120/24/1727/1.html

and let you try to figure it out. :rolleyes:

I love to see these old threads, because I like to see the names of people who are still here and wonder about those I've never heard of who apparently aren't.

Nim is right, I have always loved what it says when you type Ctrl+alt+G. I do it a lot just to see if anyting bad will happen to me for doing it! LOL

I did it in preview hoping that they forgot to block it or something. But it didn't work. :'-(
