    С приветом

    Hey - I just learned that "человек с приветом" means a slightly crazy person. On the privet.com forum, some people have "уже с приветом" written under their nicknames as a rating. Am I nuts or are these phrases related?

    Without knowing the context of that forum it is hard to say, but probably that's what they meant...

    Yeah, I think they are playing a pun on their own name:

    Already with privet (.com) == Already crazy
    Hei, rett norsken min og du er død.
    I am a notourriouse misspeller. Be easy on me.
    Пожалуйста! Исправляйте мои глупые ошибки (но оставьте умные)!
    Yo hablo español mejor que tú.

    Probably not much, but it is used. It is one of the most polite forms (but still very very informal) to suggest to a person that he is a little crazy. Usually it is used in a question:
    Ты что с приветом? = Are you crazy?

    Russian speakers don't like repeating things so they invent new ones all the time. There are lots of similar expressions, e.g.:
    У тебя все дома?
    У него не все дома.
    Ты что с дуба рухнул?
    У тебя что крыша отъехала?

    Крыша не "отъехала", а "поехала".
    Он немного мешком из-за угла стукнутый, тронутый, двинутый.

    Ну это зависит от степени завершенности действия

    I'm "уже с приветом" but I'm not "slightly crazy person". Well, I mean not "slightly"

    ещё синонимы:
    Ты что, с Луны свалился?
    или
    С дуба на кактус [упал]?
