Well done MacRumors!

It's been a pleasure to contribute my 5.6K posts towards this great moment in MR history

Doctor Q · Aug 23, 2004, 06:02 AM

I could not have said it better! Hip hip hooray!

Veldek · Aug 23, 2004, 06:10 AM

Congratulations to the site, the admins and all the members. It was a great time, so let’s work for the second million.

Abstract · Aug 23, 2004, 06:46 AM

We're already working on it.

Wonder who got the 1000000th post? Maybe he should get something for being the lucky poster.

That's a great quote in your sig, maradong. I love it!

WinterMute · Aug 23, 2004, 07:56 AM

1,000,000 up and counting I sort of thought it might be some newbie asking how he could get an avatar or another Apple PDA thread, but edesignuk saved the day with a momentus and important post full of gravitas and... er.... well.....

OK, we got some bouncy smilies, that'll do pig, that'll do.

Mr. Anderson · Aug 23, 2004, 08:09 AM

That is why this thread exists, we just couldn't let that happen!

so considering that this thread and its first post were created with the sole purpose of enhancing post counts, than they should be considered spam and not counted

also, for good measure, I think it would be fair that the following 187 posts should go to to wasteland...

Period, not a question mark.

Wow, I thought the megapost would be a lot worse than that. I was thinking of getting up at around 4am to see it happen, or to stay online until it happened. So much for that.

EGT · Aug 23, 2004, 04:38 PM

1 million posts?

I'll drink to that!!!

Heres to 2 million as well. HA!

cb911 · Aug 23, 2004, 06:21 PM

he he. you got it all worked out.... well congrats for getting the 1,000,000th post, and timing this thread right so that you got the millionth post.

would have been a terrible tragedy to post about having the millionth post, and actually miss it by 1 or 2... so congratulations for your spot-on timing.

Vector · Aug 23, 2004, 07:30 PM

Nicely done edesign!

I am glad that someone was diligent enough to rescue the millionth post from being the inane post of some newbie.

I am glad to see that you are updating the link in your sig as you change you avatar

voicegy · Aug 24, 2004, 12:46 AM

Congrats to all, and congrats to MacRumors!!

friarbayliff · Aug 24, 2004, 01:12 AM

Congrats to MacRumors

Let's get to work on 2 million eh?
