  • What happened to my "666666 posts exactly" thread?

    What happened to my "666666 posts exactly" thread? I posted it last night (with a poll), and today I was emailed that there had been a reply but when I went to it, it no longer existed. It's completely disappeared. I can't see why it would've been removed.

    I'm sure it got deleted. The mods have no sense of humour whatsoever when it comes to K hunts or announcements about particular numbers of posts. You should check your post count as well

    Try here for a forum that encourages that kind of silliness and that hasn't banned fun.

      Did I mention by the way that this thread is toast?

        Just wait until 1,000,000 posts and then post a thread about post counts that will survive. It would be justified due to the news item that would no doubt accompany it.

        Having said that, does the counted figure include those archived? Any mods who could enlighten me about this?

          Yes, you probably received a PCR.

          I believe the archives are not counted... if they are not uploaded to the site yet.

                The counted figure only includes those actually in the forum database. Deleted threads/posts, pruned threads/posts (where you get rid of the old ones to save disk space) all get taken out of the total.

                  A term used when referring to thinking that it is noteworthy when a certain figure (like posts) gets to some magical height, like 2222, 1234, 4321 or an exact thousand (K: kilo, thousand) like 12000.

                    I thought so, simply based on the number of posts in the members list. As I said 1,000,000 I was thinking thats figure was a bit small, and so asked about archived threads.

                    So the next question .....anyone know what the grand total of posts is up to? I'm guessing it would be the sum of the entire members list.

                        I think I've found my soulmate, Gasmaske- someone else who likes useless data- who is Spartak on Apolyton

                            I forgot about OT posts and PCRs. They would have to be added back in.

                              Well, then who is Spartak here- or is he merely your DL at Coutnerglow and elsewhere?
