Will there be a prize for the member who posts the 500000th post?

Oh yeah...we're about a thousand posts away from the half-million mark. I think we'll get there some time today...

At this rate I think we will, with only four hours left of my day left, your day must have longer left.

It has been 38 posts since my last posting here, so we are looking at 38 for ten minutes, that will be 228 in an hour and with less than a thousand to go the target should be reached four and half hours later, about 00:30 my time.

500000 posts in just over a year. Wonder how long 1000000 will take?  :o


And I wonder if and when someone will reach 500000 posts?!  :o :-X

Subject: Re: With the 500000 post approaching.

Written By: ChuckyG on 07/15/05 at 11:27 am

Technically that's just 500,000 posts since moving to the new software 16 months ago, you need to add those two lines together to reach the total number of posts. somewhere around 870,000 posts since 1998 or so.

It also gets adjusted downwards when posts are deleted, so not really sure what it truly counts.  Just the posts currently in the software. 

Still kind of cool to think how fast it's grown.  Back in 1999 or so, there was maybe 4 or 5 posts per day, now it's like 1,500 or so.

Ahh...I missed it. :-\\ Apparently it happened when I was still in bed. (I slept in this morning.) Oh well.. :-\\

At this rate we'll probably hit the one-million mark before October 2006.
