    [​IMG] In this thread ( http://www.sorcerers.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?/topic/18/502.html ) we looked forward to and celebrated the 300,000 post on the Boards O' Magick (in April 2004) and also wondered when the 400,000th would be.

    Well, at our current rate of posting, it is likely that this once distant milestone will be reached sometime before the end of this month.

    Does the excitement ever stop around here?

    [​IMG] Heh, somone should do some kind of research into post rates... who's got the highest # of posts/month, that sort of thing ... Then we'll know who the true spammers are! :D

    EDIT: I've just realised (nice irony here!) ... this is my 300th post! Yay! :grin:

    SO that's 300 posts since Feb 2k5:

    Posts per month = 300/4 = 75 posts/month = 2.5 posts/day (Approx.)

    Not bad, if I do say so myself... ;)

    Jaguar - given that we are now at 395,116 since yesterday, I would say that 400,000 is not too far off at all.

    At HB's current rate of spamming - err,I mean quality posting :p - he'll probably cover those 5,000 himself in the next few weeks.

    :p :p

    I'm not in the same league as Ara and Chevy, but I try my best to make quality posts! Let's hit the big number in style (maybe a No-Prize for the person who posts it?)

    I say we all name a SP-Member that hasn't posted since a year. :p
    That way we can also honor 'the fallen'. :D

    Arioch lord of chaos: 0 posts total, 0 since 2000.
    I probably get banned with Splunge now.

    Well, sometimes people just get busy or tired of the boards and want to take a break. I stopped posting for over a year myself. Started again last April.
