How Will the 2,000,000th Post Impact Our Community?

[Greg Bernhardt]

We should reach 2,000,000 posts within the next two weeks! WOW! Also coming up to 150,000 members. Pretty incredible! Perhaps the 2,000,000th post poster will get Gold membership for life.

Or instead for the person who has guessed the exact date and time right of the two millionth.

How convenient that we should hit 3 milestones at almost the same time.

But wait, there's even more milestones coming up soon!

malawi_glenn is almost to 4000 posts
I am nearing 3000 posts
4 users are within 20 posts of 2000
faust9 is at 1000 posts right now!
6 more users are within 20 of getting to 1000!

Wow!

 

[Danger]

Jeez, but we're a gabby bunch...

 

[turbo]

Will GD posts count for the 2 millionth?

Then they will have a short life.

 

[Pengwuino]

I make up a sizeable portion of that mass of blabbing.

Well. This is my 1111110010th post. Wait, that's not decimal.

 

[Kurdt]

What a shame they no longer count in feedback. :tongue:

So that's why I had to edit my post.

You may be on to something there. Shouldn't we be celebrating the 2,097,152th (= 2²¹) post?

 

[G01]

I'm also within 50 of 2,000 posts!

It's milestone week!

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

And almost 250,000 threads!

passed, woohoo!

 

[turbo]

Don't keep us in suspenders, Greg. Who was #250,000? What was the thread?

2,149,949 total posts

 

[Evo]

No, we are only at 1,990,893

 

[Wellesley]

No, we are only at 1,990,893

Oops. Sorry about that. Do you happen to know what 2,149,949 stands for?

It's probably the total number of posts made. Posts in General Discussion and Politics and World Affairs don't count.

they do in the general count, but it just doesn't add to anyone's individual counts. the number is past 2mil on post ids because the difference is the number of posts we have deleted. The number isn't generated every refresh.

 

[NeoDevin]

How about now? Are we there yet?

 

[Evo]

1,991,118

 

[Astronuc]

passed, woohoo!

Yeah! We kind of blew by that milepost - thanks to all those HW threads in the HW forums.

 

[NeoDevin]

1,991,118

And now?

 

[lisab]

My guess of when we hit 2,000,000: April 11, 1900 GMT.

April 11, 19-59-99 GMT, and not a second earlier or later.

I know, I'm kidding, like a child in a car repeating "Are we there yet?"

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

Looks like it will be monday!

 

[Astronuc]

Posts: 1,999,763 - we're close!

37 more legitimate posts to go.

Update: Maybe in the next 5 minutes.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

How many?
