Post number one million, of a sort

Post by **orudge** » 17 Mar 2012 18:09

Congratulations to Eddi, who has had the post with ID 1,000,000. Note that this isn't actually the 1,000,000th post, however, as the post IDs are somewhat out of sync with the number of posts on the forums - we still have 12,260 posts to go before we have a total of a million posts on the forums. But it's still a milestone of sorts, I guess.

Will TT- forums be awarding Eddi his massive yacht any time soon?

Post by **orudge** » 17 Mar 2012 19:08

No. He must have closed the 19 pop-ups.

Could that indicate that 12,260 posts has been deleted or merged over the years, or something like that? Seems a high number though, considering that you don't delete, just move.

And. Huzzah!

No, it's probably in part due to the original forum merges and the AGMTT import, where post IDs were perhaps missed out. As you say, we generally don't delete posts, they get moved to the spam bin. (For what it's worth, there are 13,059 posts in the spam bin right now!)

That's actually quite a good ratio of spam to actual sensible forum discussion. Massive Yacht.

I'd say banned for making many useless posts in order to make sure to have post 1M

Yeah course I do. Will it be a Prize, lol?
@FooBar: That would just be cruel on the Person who makes it.

And what if it's a spammer?

And what if it's orudge?

Well then get rid of it. It shouldn't count as the Millionth as it technically isn't a normal Human.
@LC: Could be, that would be quite fitting, I imagine he made the first as well.

IIRC, he didn't, as the merged forum (omnislash?) was older than his

Post by **Pilot** » 18 Mar 2012 20:00

Oh Right, I wasn't entirely sure.

It appears that the smallest post # is post 3.

No, mine was oldest. However, post ID 1 (as it was) belonged to Omnislash's forum, as we took his as the base and merged mine in afterwards, despite mine being older.

Most of the AGMTT posts are even older, though...

According to the forum statistics, the number of posts have surpassed one million.

Congratulations again.
