I saw this thread in the Android forums.. so just post and complete this sentence "You know you're rooted when.."
Examples:
masaidjet: You know you're rooted when you tell a neighborhood hoe to " wipe her cache "
wscott9903: You know you're rooted when 1/2 of your apps require superuser permission.
feralicious: You know you're rooted when your spouse tells you they're leaving you and taking the kids and you think "perfect timing, (insert dev name here) just released a new ICS ROM".
jayochs: you know you're rooted when your phones buggy as hell lol
putney1477: You know you're rooted when, you husband, wife, significant other gets a new phone and says, don't you dare come near this phone, it works fine!
jackpot08: You know your rooted when when spend more time flashing roms than using your phone
Greetz..
i shall begin:
you know you're rooted when you have to delete backups because you have no space left on your sd
You know your rooted when: You see someone on there phone and all you can think about is what rom there running.
You know you're rooted when you have more development apps than children have games.
You know you're rooted when you see someone with a smartphone [of any type] and all you think is "f*cking noob"
You know you're rooted when you get asked multiple times a day what the hell you're doing with your phone
And finally: You know you're rooted when your girlfriend now wants an Android device because "my iPhone 4S can't do all the cool stuff your Android can"

It all depends on how you're flashing bro. If you're flashing via cwm, and then that's not increasing your flash counter. The only time the counter is increased is if you're flashing none official files via Odin.
The 1 in your flash count is probably from the initial flash of cwm via Odin when you first rooted your phone.

Google is your friend
It's a program that is used to reset your flash counter back to zero so Samsung won't be able to tell you flashed non official firmware on your phone at some point. Basically it comes in handy if you want to keep your warranty on your phone.

Ok, I've seen this thread in multiple device forums and for what it's worth, a device sucj as the X8 will have a lot of tales to spare. The rules are simple, just state something most rooted phone owners face .
I'll start.
You know you're rooted when bootloops don't scare you anymore
You know you're rooted when you have a kick-ass camera but you have to explain to everyone that "My ROM doesn't support camera yet ..."

DO NOT DO THIS!!
Pumpkin seeds and throwing at the wall?!! ha. Nice try
Everyone knows that the only way to get root is to bury the phone in soil, water it and wait (it may take longer than expected but DON'T WORRY, and DON'T REBOOT whilst waiting for root.)

I'm not going to dispute your knowledge of customs roms. However, my issue with them is that while many will claim they are bug free or nearly bug free, I see post after post with numerous issues or functions simply not working. If I were more informed or more savvy I might feel more comfortable taking on a custom rom. Until then or until the unanimous vote is truly bug free, my lack of knowledge will leave me enjoying my rooted/stock rom. I'll leave custom roms, bugs or not, to the more intelligent.

Well said! I completely respect and understand that decision. One of the great things about android is the freedom of choice. Most of the developers create Roms suited to their taste, and they are nice enough to share them with the community at large. Seldom if ever do they actually sustain a living doing this sort of thing. I wish you all the best!
And just to clarify. My #1 reason for being an Android diehard is because of the unlimited number of choices it offers. I just know my boundaries when it comes to technology modifications. I don't want to be another "I've bricked my phone!" guy.
