We are going to miss the 9M target!

[Steven P. 16,312]

By the 1st of October 2009 it was looking good to match 9M posts at the start of our 10th year and 9 from being online.

So far (at the time of posting) our members have made a total of 8,769,079 posts. If we look at the averages of around 80,000 a month (topics and replies) it looks like we'll add another 200,000 coming up around 30 to 40k short of the mark!

Are we up for the challenge?

But I try to fix faults with the least amount of replies :p

Oh god Neobond... you just started another NeoChan thread. Those who remember the run towards the 8,000,000th post will remember what I mean.

The person who gets the 9m will get windows 7?

;)

[AbandonedTrolley 93]

Quick rally the spammers!

I'm sure a competition giving out one or more Windows 7 licences wouldn't hurt. ;)

I say we have another thread like the 8,000,000'th post thread!

[Steven P. 16,312]

Could possibly do that at the start of September yeah.

What is this thread that you speak of? :p

Isn't this just an invite to fill the board with more crap and less quality posting?

I think we need something to happen in GH so we have a flood of people posting.

No its to reach a target.. The offer of Windows Vista box as a reward was here: http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=635486 and it remained there, so you could skip the same sort of post that we'd create.

We don't endorse spamming but for a good cause we make exceptions like the example thread above.

Ah, so the 'spamming' so to speak - is confined to one thread?

Fair enough.

[morphen 14]

quick, we need windows 8 alpha, so everyone can discuss it,post fake screenshots and fake buildnumbers ;D

Also; start some flamingwars, and keep the moderators on a leech ;) topics like ; "Why windows 7 sucks", "why apple can go jump in a lake", "why XP rules", " linux sucks badly".

;)

[Pablo2008jedi 3]

Do posts have to be constructive? Otherwise I can well and truly make enough posts :p
