Wow I’m still alive
At 99924 now, which means we’ll hit it by March surely?

Hopefully, unless tubeguru goes on another deletion spree. Unlike last time, the figure can go down as well as up!
Let's hope we get something more interesting than "cheese" this time

Re: 100,000 posts on the forum
Of course, it's quite possible that the counter could reach 100,000 more than once. Let's suppose that you made the post that brought the counter up to 100,000. I could delete one of my own, bring the counter back to 99,999, and claim the 100,000th post for myself.
So I think the honour (such as it is) should go to the first person to bring the counter up to 100,000.

Re: 100,000 posts on the forum
Is that a prediction?
Given the way he sneaked in with post number 100,000, I wouldn't be at all surprised. (Of course there were fewer than 95,000 posts on the counter at the time.)

Re: 100,000 posts on the forum
Much to my annoyance, I missed the moment when the counter reached 100,000! I logged off last night with the total at 99,995, and when I logged in this morning it had reached 100,003. However, a bit of counting reveals the crucial post to be this one from tangy, appropriately enough announcing the official results of the 2018 Winter Olympics Full Network Challenge:

Hmm, the post counter is back at 100,003 again. Who's been deleting posts?

It looks as though four posts were deleted some time this morning, though I know not by whom.

Just make sure it doesn't go below 100,000 again, otherwise you might have a terrible fight on your hands!
