We are getting closer to the 7th million messages barrier

[Qonundrum]

What happens when we get to the 10 million barrier? Do we all turn into Salamanders?

And get it on with our captains with a duet from Barry Manilow and Barry White!

I'll have a Post 9815 to go, with extra bacon and American cheese. On a sesame seed bun.

Which type of American cheese the one from a can or the plastic one?

We should burn through that in less than a week.

If England wins the WC title we will be very close to the 8th million barrier in no time.......

At least It'll be a quiet shift during the match tomorrow at work.

It was known as The Great Purge and it happened in the early 2000s. Not sure of the exact year.

The great purge happened late 2002.

I wasn’t sure if it was 2002 or 2003. I think I lost about 2000 off my postcount.

That's a good weekend in The Movie Game thread.

I'm going to miss the 7th million post as I will be offline for two days or so.....

 

[MacLeod]

Ah well there is always the 8 millionth one to look forward to.

Hardly seems fair, since you started the thread and everything.

Hmm, OK... everybody STOP POSTING. Starting now. Um, well, after I hit "Post Reply".

Let us know when you're back!

ETA: There. Starting now!

Hardly surprising really if each member of the thousands of members lost hundreds or thousands of post in the Great Purge you can quickly get to several million lost posts.

Same story than the last time. Almost 7 million posts on this forum. People have already asked what the BBS will be in its final days. I hope the final days are far away yet. I guess we could have already reached 7 million posts if it weren't for the publication break.
Thanks to Discovery there are still people joining. So it is still possible to reach 10 million posts or more.....

I hear people say that social media is causing the death of message boards. Yeah, okay
This forum (and many, many others) is proof that the death of the message board had been greatly exaggerated.

Let's at least say: to the next 1 million messages. Let's hope the 7th million post doesn't involve any politicians.....

How about boobs? Oh wait, you said no politicians. Never mind

Message boards don't find themselves in the news as often as Social Media sites such as Facebook.

That's a good thing.

Yep as bad news can driver users/potential users away.
