Yes.

The ultimate Gamespotter will eventually appear to rule us all. With over 1 million posts.

Change the thread to "Microsoft Sucks, Nintendo sucks, PS3 has no games, Sega rules, Sonic is better than Mario".

[QUOTE="MistressMinako"]It's possible, probably would take about 10-15 years, but it's possible. You can make about 2 posts per minute (I know from doing my friends blog run). You would have to either.... -Post in RC daily, with hardly no breaks except when you have to. -Post in active unions. -Post or make a UCB then post with friends. -Make A LOT of friends on here and post in their blogs and go to the soapbox to comment those blogs. -Comment on like nearly most of the news topics here -PM people (actually, I am not even sure if that adds to your post count just heard it through the grapevine) -Post in other topics With that plan, you could be at a million posts in no time! Or... burned out. Most likely the latter. :P

PMs don't increase post count, but posting blogs do.

My goal in life is to reach 4,294,967,295 posts. That way, one more post will cause an integer overflow and I'll break Gamespot.cd_rom
Implying the gamespot code monkeys realised that people couldn't have a negative post count. Preposterous!

Maybe if you use all spare time on this site, and take interest in every thread and make lots of post in each one.

I'm still saying no. At 300 a day for ten years they'd get there in theory but the site is too slow now days for that to be even close to possible. And it gets boring

you would have to spend many hours a day for years, posting on the same threads over and over. But it could be done. You just wouldn't have a life.

Yeah, I just read someone saying something about it... which is why I put I wasn't sure in parenthesis. :o Besides, that would be nuts... I would be at 40k if PMs were included. :P

No, as it takes like 7 or 8 years for users to get 100k posts (something like that) so it would take pretty much their whole life to reach it. Also if I was a mod I'd suicide and ban the guy at 9999999 :P

I'm sure a whole lot of dedication and energy drink/coffee would definitely help that person out. Of course, that individual would be a very special person...:P

It would take an incredible amount of time. If you posted every single minute of the year without rest, you'd have 512,640 posts in one year lol.

Assuming you achieved a post-rate of 200 per day (which is ridiculously high; I contribute less than five comments a day) you would arrive at the one million mark in five thousand days. Which is about thirteen years and eight months. If you go for a more realistic (but still optimistic) twenty posts a day, you'd take one hundred and thirty-seven years to get to one million. Your theoretical speed limit is 2880 posts/day (if you don't sleep or eat or do anything but post) which would still take you just under a full year to hit a million.

Yeah, you might be able to do it if it was your job description or something. Or if you spammed comments on a dead thread and deleted them to ensure you didn't get modded. Otherwise, it's nearly impossible.
