thai visa is coming up for its millionth post , a milestone in anyones book.

do the site owners have any kind of celebration , competition , prize , or free gift for the millionth poster , and if not why not ?

I will probaly be that person.

I think they should give something out, but then when it comes near too the 1,000,000th post everyone will be posting like crazy about anything

Where's the link to information of total posts made ? Thank you.

There.

There.

Ok, so I found out that my previous post was #962,410. I found this out by moving my mouse pointer over either the or buttons and the last part of the link shows the post #. Is there any other simpler way ?

Bottom of the index page, the information is already out of date.

If we had to make a guess, or if we were wagering on it, my bet would be on either Kayo, Suegha, Totster or Donz making the post. Considering past posting history of course.

that was post 963652, that makes about 1000posts a day on tv ,( when no big stories are running) , i reckon by the end of november the millionth will be very close.

ita all pointless nonsense of course , even more pointless than that graceless fawns bilge that i cant abide , but w.t.f.

Like most of us, your math sucks when you don't use a calculator. 963,652 - 956,540 = 7,112. Which means the millionth post will likely be made, I'm guessing on this coming Saturday, Sunday, or Monday depending on how heavy the posts are in the coming few days.

I'm voting on the Donzer!

So owners -- going to share some of your fortune?

the 1 million mark has already been reached, but the posts were deleted by the moderation team. its like we are in injury time.

It will probably be some newbie with one post looking for the best place for a boob job.

My money would be on The Donz as well. We are talking posts, not value-judgement content, aren't we?!

Never fear The Dude will be here will shovel for the poster who makes that 1 millionth post. That will be a diggable moment

original post on this topic .....30/10/2006 ... 9.56am post number 962369

subsequent post .................31/10/2006 ...10.24am post number 963652

963352-962369 = 1290 posts in just over 24 hours

roughly 38000 posts to go to the millionth mark i.e. 38000/1290 = roughly 29.45 days until the millionth.

so , as i originally said soju , it should be towards the end of november.

It'll probably be Brit or JD posting some exciting story from the Pattaya Post!

Ok, now I see it. The problem is with the title of your post. It states the number as 956,540, so I just subtracted the two numbers and thought that was the daily post count. But there are evidently two numbers as to the total posts which don't agree with each other. I'm guessing one is total posts made, and the other is total posts still remaining on the board after some have been deleted. So the question is which count to use in determining the 1,000,000 mark? My vote would be for the higher of the two.

i think the numbers found by clicking the report or quote buttons must be constantly updated whereas the one on the forum title page is only done daily , hence the difference in our calculations.

i think , although deleted posts are deleted , the posts following do not move back one number , so deleted posts will be included in the number.

anybody lend me an anorak ?

my money's on Donz.

One of his gems, i bet

Hold the phone....

According to The International Board of Forum Post Count Rules, you cannot count "smiley's" as legitimate posts....

Therefore, the current post count on Thai Visa is 14

If I win, could I get a voucher for the pharmacy since I seem to get sick once every 3 weeks?

...just throwing that out there

Well, the difference was quite significant...962,369 vs. 956,530...much more than one days worth of posts. Plus in checking the main page, the count is continuously updated, so a delayed count is not the case. Maybe that total on the main page is total posts visible to you. If there are hidden forums that you cannot view, it might not count those posts in the total on the main page.

soju needs one as well.

You should get those bumps and holes on your body checked out the next time you see a doc . . .

I bet the word "troll" will be part of the post.

I bet "edited by <insert mod name>" will be part of the post.

Will Deletions play part of the final determination?

I root for the melon head cat.
