<div class="IPBDescription">well, almost .....</div> Just thought I'd point out the little tidbit of info on the main index page of the NS Forums:
"<b>Our members have made a total of 996512 posts</b>"

We're getting really dang close!! Who's going to get the exalted 1,000,000th post?

I know <i>I'll</i> be checking back over the next few days to find out. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    There's about 3500 posts until we hit that mark. Anyone know the overall average posts per day for the entire forums?

    Maybe we can get a poll of the exact time of the exact day (<i>without this becoming a spamthread, obviously</i>). No prize, but just for fun. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Average is(guess) about 500-700 a day, so another 4-6 days.

    It feels good having contributed around 1000 posts to that <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->


    Anyone know how this compares to other forums? Because we all know that postcount matters <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Well, Gameplanet forums has got:

    Total 138,961 threads, 2,449,069 posts, 25,177 members.

    but the members are annoying, the topics inane and boring.

    Keep posting games and their screenshots, guys! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Edit: GNRAWR, THERE IS NO EXCUSE, THEY HAVE LESS MEMBERS THAN WE DO, AND MORE THAN 2.5 TIMES OUR POSTS. GET POSTING, CHUMPS

    Well let's hope you don't win so the prize goes to someone who really needs some spare Jack Diddly around the house.

    How you gonna know if you get the 1 millionth post?
  • coilcoil Amateur pirate. Professional monkey. All pance. Join Date: 2002-04-12 Member: 424Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    Actually, the board averages about 1600-1700 posts daily, so we should be passing the millionth post sometime in the next two days.

    The millionth poster gets the honor of *not* seeing "1,000,000 posts" on the main board, since he'll be in whatever topic he just replied to when it happens.

    Actually, we have exceeded one million, but for some reason many of the posts aren't counted (possibly because they were deleted).

    This is post number 1015950. Hover your cursor over this post's quote or report button for proof.

    I managed to find <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=66858&view=findpost&p=999999' target='_blank'>999999</a> and <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=66801&view=findpost&p=1000001' target='_blank'>1000001</a>, but I can't seem to find 1000000. It is probably in a forum that is not visible to me.

    Okay, now we know that there's no point looking for THE 1 millionth post. But, we can still celebrate 1, 000, 000 LEGIT posts.. deleted ones dont count. Why? Because they are SCUM. Yes!

    So keep posting. Make new topics [good ones], post in threads, etc.

    No, that's 999016.

    The reason that link does not lead to post 1000000 is that it leads to a specific thread, and 1000000 is not in that thread.

    That's post 1000001 that's in I&S. Post 1000000, as far as I can tell, is in a forum to which I do not have access.

    That or it was made by a member with a name that does not include any vowels; since I could not run a search without inputting any parameters, I ran five separate searches, each for posts made by members with names that contain one of the vowels.

    Just an update of the "official" forum-wide post count:
    "<b>Our members have made a total of 998354 posts</b>".

    Just 1600 more, and we can start the ten-minute celebration!! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Then, of course, it'll be all over, and we'll scratch our heads, think "that's it? wow.... I was expecting balloons or something", and settle back into the whining and complaining in the I&S forum. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    It is probably in the veteran forum, considering that both members included in the quote are veterans.

    For the exact location, run a search for the text.

    W00T!!

    (Just doing my bit)

    Blatently, all the admins are now spamming away in the mod forums so they get the 1,000,000th post instead of us.

    IT'LL NEVER WORK! NEVAAR!!

    And I won't be home... probably. I am performing at a concert later on today (leaving home in 6 hours). Oh-ow.

    Don't waste the 1 millionth post! make it insightful ,etc.!

    It would be ironic if this was the 1,000,000th post.
