Junior Chubb 6,338 #26 Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) Am I the 5 millionth? Nope it was me, with this post. Unlucky Biff Edit to Add: Actually Biff it might be, I just checked, 5,000,001 after my post. If you can't find a post made 6:05 and 6:07 GMT then you are the 5 Million dollar Man!!! Edited to add (again): Well played Waspie, nothing like a picture to capture the moment. Edited March 24, 2014 by Junior Chubb 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waspie_Dwarf 12,857 #35 Posted March 24, 2014 To put 5 million into perspective, if you were to make a post once a minute, every minute without ever stopping, starting from now, you would reach 5 million round about September 2023. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Helen of Annoy 32,252 #36 Posted March 24, 2014 Junior, step up to this pedestal I don’t want to be blamed alone for what we’ve done I had no idea we’re close to 5 million posts... 5 million... That’s... more than I have fingers on my hands so I don’t know exactly how large is that number but anyways, what have Junior and I won? 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waspie_Dwarf 12,857 #50 Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) do we count the spam advertisements? Thanks to Saru's hard work a system was put in place that enabled us to track down and removed old spam posts that had gone unreported and unnoticed, in some cases for years. We've hit this 5 million land mark despite removing many hundreds of posts since we passes the 4 million mark. And whilst on the subject of spam, can I thank the members on behalf of the moderating team. Spam is usually reported very quickly. Thank you for taking the time to report it, it makes the job of removing it so much easier. Edited March 31, 2014 by Waspie_Dwarf 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
