congratulations to posters and mods for reaching the magic million at last.

who would have thought all those years ago when the good ship tv first set sail that the leaky old rustbucket with its beer swilling crew could be piloted with such skill and accuracy that 4 years later it would have become the worlds largest expat blathering board attracting posters and sponsors from all stratas of humanity.

international megaweights , the subway sandwich franchise even chose thaivisa to promote their foot longs and six inchers. seasick anybody ?

it has had to endure stormy waters , one of the mods was deported in chains from thailand for various pecker related crimes , the ship was attacked viciously and without warning by a craft supposedly made out of teak , and several passengers aboard have had to be ceremoniously cast overboard due to their unruly and mutinous behaviour.

but on she sailed.

heres to another million posts on thaivisa.

Sorry Tax.. but I only make it..

Our members have made a total of 993,931 posts

Jumped the gun a bit methinks..

The tsunami year didn't affect my business, nor did the coup. Maybe I'm just lucky. jap.gif

You probably weren't running a business in Phuket then? Without knowing the exact nature of your business it's impossible to say whether it's luck, good management, or just being in the right place at the right time.

In every economic downturn, in every depression and even in war there are always plenty of people who thrive.

with this thread..:

Bravo!

Congratulations again

Well Done TV lets go for the next 1,000,000 now..

Alas we are mistaken...

The number your talking about is the Internal Database ID, and probably wasn't seeded at number 1 (or possibly test posts made when the board was being set up, that have since been deleted).

The actual number is available here

http://www.big-boards.com/board/1574/

So looks like we have a few days to go to hit the magic number...

Solly to be the bearer of bad news

What does the lucky 1,000,000th poster win? A romantic dinner with the mod of their choice?

They get the pleasure of buying me dinner, getting me drunk and listening to me waffle on about pointless, meaningless drivvel (much like your post history Dan )

So what's the prize?

TV is raking the money in now -how about a decent cash prize, say 100,ooo baht

My 1600 one-liners contain almost no waffle, and almost no content!

Profound or not.. it was, as indicated by the "Report" key, the one millionth post.. an honour of some description surely awaits Troppo?...

As "stockholders" in this "company", it would seem that rather than award a prize simply for the millionth post (who can very well end up being a newbie asking for directions to the best farang meal in Mukdahan), that the reasonable thing to do would be to pay a dividend to the aforementioned stockholders, say 1 baht per post? It is the stockholders who have built up this site and it's reasonable to receive just compensation, is it not?

I gracefully donate my aforementioned dividends to a piss-up in March.

Me too.. all 191 baht of it..

Congratulations and Jubilations: Wel little ole me on my way to the 1000 well 200 and something away
