What does the "_____ In The Playground" mean?

Well, the Giant in the Playground is Rich Burlew, the creator of The Order of the Stick, the comic which this site is based around.

The ____ In the Playground under usernames next to posts is just a silly way of loosely tracking how many posts you've made. There's a list here.

If you didn't know, the source quote is from Babylon 5. Which is just another reminder of how old this comic is.

I mean... Babylon 5 was a 90s sci-fi series, and the OOTS comic didn't start until many years later. It's just that Rich happened to be a fan of that show.
