Hi all,

As Simon (MrB) has pointed out, one of my posts from earlier today was the 500000th post on IceInSpace!

http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s...000#post500000

Another milestone for this great site!!! Looking forward to the next half a million.

(I wonder if that entitles me to a free IIS beanie or something...

)

Cheers,
Stephen

You'd have to share it with all those who made it possible.

Yes, that's true David.

Thanks again to all those who make this such a brilliant site!

Cheers,

Just curious.
Do posts and therefore threads have a use-by date i.e. when are they relegated to the trash?

Doesn't look like it.
The following link appears to be post#1
http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s....php?p=1#post1

What appears to be post #3 is interesting... you'd think it would be #1!
http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s....php?p=3#post3

The time of posting confirms the post #'s to be correct.

So, it looks like all 500000 posts could be on file.
Mind-boggling!

Regards, Rob

Man, what a senseless waste of precious life! C'mon people, get-a-life.com!!

Oops, yeah that's right... err, here's to the next half mill!

That's nothing. I'm already over 1100000000 myself. (Well, in binary anyway.)

Congratulations on the milestone.

That's one less...

Somewhere around 2 years I reckon, unless there's some great event like Comet McNaught again causing a surge in member numbers.

Approx 700 new posts since yesterday, so ~700 days for 500k posts, ~2 years.
