1,000,000th CN forum post soon!

[Anonymous]

At the moment of writing this post there is under 6000 posts to the "magical" 1,000,000 post! Considering the speed of posting so far in the last few days, The Post will be reached in the next few days, almost certainly by the time of the WCh men road race! Wonder who will be the lucky poster!

As the forum is divided into many subforums I suppose only the admins can resolve the identification of The Post.

P.S. Is there going to be any reward? This is not something that happens often so forum organizers might as well be generous?

Your post has ID 1026821, so is it fair to say CN passed 1,000,000 posts a while back?

That includes erased posts. I've used official forum statistics which says it's under 1 million and when that counter hits that figure that's something special, right?

Who would say that that many posts were deleted, about 30k, that is more than 3%.

1,000,000th post by ID

Regarding the ID, the 1,000,000th post by ID was
Turner29's post made on 27th of August in the thread regarding the LA clinic stuff. It seems no one noticed that one!

Still, however, waiting for the one that will make the official forum counter 7digit at least for the moment(ruling out possible subsequent deleting changing the winner).

So 1M posts have been made, but a few have been deleted. Different to 1M posts residing in the db.

Give BPC credit, the guy is persistent. Nutty as a Snickers, but persistent.

I'm not sure how the forum software works, but it is possible that post deletion means either:
a) just flagging in the DB in order not to be shown
b) deletion from DB

In both cases the post IDs would be the same(IDs wouldn't shift).

As for the millionth post, I sincerely hope it is thehog quoting thehog.

We have passed a million posts, so what was the millionth post? And is there a reward? Mods?
