Title: AND WE HAVE A WINNER AT 500k POSTS!
Post by: The Riddler on January 04, 2010, 06:59:10 PM
After a little whiles worth of searching, I found the true 500k get.
http://nsfcd.com/index.php?topic=31732.msg500000#msg500000
Kind of a let down, actually, such an anticlimactic find, but congrats Jono2 on your missed get!
...do you even post here anymore? ;_;

As far as stats are concerned, that isn't a 500k get.

And the goal is to have 500k posts, not to know that there have been that many created posts including deleted/junk ones.

But "gets" are never determined by stat numbers, they're determined by the post number. If this was a "get" than Lotos got it. We've already hit the number 500,000. It's just that we've lost posts.

I agree with Rob in this case. If it is a "get" then Jono got it.

That is the official 500,000th post. If none of the posts were deleted on this forum, there would have been 499,999 behind him. The numbers don't change when things are deleted.

"491,435 Posts in 26,647 Topics by 2,537 Members."
SMF =/= 4chan
The deleted posts exist, but they aren't counted. SMF says we have about 491k posts, and that's what we're going by for the contest.

That isn't how "gets" work though. It goes by whoever gets the post number. We have 491k posts now but in a few years I might delete some stupid old posts I made and intercourse  up more numbers accidentally. Some old user might come back and be like "Oh god why did I make these retarded posts, I want to start off clean."

Well, yeah.
But Lotos won't get anything for it, since it isn't official. :(

I say, FUCK 500k.

We're just going to aim for 600k the correct way by going by the numbers and not the SMF post count.

It'll take NSFCD 2 years at least for 600k.

Let's go for 666,666 posts!

And I couldn't accept it anyway, as I deleted a few hundred of my posts when mad at this place.  Most of my Pokemon board posts are gone.

I don't even know how to delete posts (or rather, I've never looked into it) Just noticed the 'remove' option up there. And I don't see why any normal members would need to use it. I just lock topics and edit posts. If I said something stupid, well I live with it.

Anyway, even if that is the true 500,000th post, it doesn't count toward the contest. What we are looking for is post 500,000 that registers in the stats. Congrats Jono for getting the true 500,000, but unfortunately it doesn't count in this contest.

You  get the most use out of it if you double post/realize you posted something stupid.

Post by: The Riddler on January 06, 2010, 01:53:52 PM
Point is invalid, FH.
There was a 500k get, simple as that.
I'm certain that the 30k posts lost were not all spam and junk/user deleted posts. I'm positive they're lost posts from one of the forum crashes.
Thus at some point, the stats read "500,000".  This likely isn't it, being that there were posts deleted, but it's the closest we'd find to the actual one, AND it has the plus of actually being the 500,000th post itself.

The point is valid, though.
Nobody here is not choosing to count the deleted posts. It's SMF that doesn't count the deleted posts.
Go ninny to them about it. :U

Rob, the forum crashes erase all traces of those posts.  There really have been 30K posts deleted or are hidden.  So my point stands.  There are not 500,000 posts existing within this forum and our stats have never reached the point of saying so.  Hence when the stats read "500,000" the last post made to achieve that earns the 500K get.  This forum is almost 2 1/2 years old and was incredibly active early on.  There is no reason to doubt that we've lost 30K posts.

Rob missed the point of 500k, it's the point silver gets special privileges as admin for a SMF forum and gets the ability to see a forum on the SMF boards or something like that.

It's to be the first person to set the forum post count stats to 500k, not to post the 500k post

Yet you've spent half this thread commenting on something that's unique to an image board run like 4chan is.  Where the only way to count a post is by its ID number.  An SMF forum does not work that way, as we don't delete posts after so many pages.  The forum post count is the one of the posts in the forum.  Not to mention, we have never actually had 500K within the forum.  Which is the point of the 500K get here.  To reward the person that get's the 500K post in the forums.
