I think that epic post should be reserved for 73...it is really his party after all. :dweez:

Out of curiosity, were 2M or 3M celebrated? I was around at both times and don't recall

I was wondering the same thing.

Yes. Both milestones happened in Grand Designs.

 

For the 2M celebration party, strippers carrying pitchers of beer were everywhere. It was the happiest I've ever seen treeduck.

 

For the 3M celebration party, TRF looked like that Star Trek original series episode where the local townspeople go nuts only at a certain time of day. "You are not of The Body!"

Oh that is what those numbers mean...interesting. Perhaps Surrender77 did earn the lofty No-Prize.

the 5000 gap may account for all the posts/topics that may have been deleted through TRF's history. While the forum doesn't say it has 4m right now, 4m have been made. Some are ghosts

I'd wager the difference in posts is due to the hidden moderator subforum.

This is correct. A lot of duplicate posts and threads have been deleted over the years. Curiously, a member's post count does not go down if a duplicate post they made is deleted.

Deleted posts don't affect the post count as far as that quote tag number is concerned because if you those numbers changed every time we deleted a post you'd see the quoted post change to a different post -- that number is a reference to that particular post so it can't change.

 

I'd wager the difference in posts is due to the hidden moderator subforum.

 

No, posts made in the mod forum count towards the number we see on the main page, just like posts made in SOCN count -- remember, most TRFers don't have access to SOCN, yet everyone sees the same post count.

 

This is the forum post count:

 

3995036

 

Yes, the number in the main page is the number we go by when celebrating milestones.

Do you have a way to see the real 4 millionth post?

What do you consider the "real" post count?

If we know the exact difference between the main page post count and the count we see in the quote tags, then we can figure it out -- as long as someone is paying attention when the main page counter hits 4 mil so we can narrow down which posts to look at.
