As of last night Off-Topic reached 10,000,000 posts since the topics were last purged in October 2006.

Let me try some math here.

10,000,000 posts occured in about 65 months (Oct '06 to Mar '12)
153,846 posts per month (actual 153846.15384615384615384615384615)
38,462 posts per week (actual 38461.538461538461538461538461525)
5,494 post per day (actual 5494.5054945054945054945054945036)
229 postsper hour(actual 228.93772893772893772893772893763)

And in every second, 3 people are telling someone that they're wrong!

If you have better figures go ahead and shares your estimates

We all remember that month of GameSpot's purge. I dealt with GameCenter game server creation tool, but I recall people telling me crazy stuff they encountered.

The days in October 2006 were full of weirdness. The nights had unbanned crawling around the forums and taunting people with their access to the site. The moderation histories also disappeared. But, one thing that remained since then, the forum topics never automatically purged like they used to. Gone were the days when you clicked an older topic and it lead you to a 404 page because it was purged for not being read or posted in.

Got any other stories? Post 'em!

Banndoging and recounting memories... Jody, you're just asking for someone from the past to show up and recount their greatest feats as a troll. I can see Dmad and the others already planning their own April Fool's Day prank...

Manatee:

They're pretty friendly, too. They've got some live ones at a Florida aquarium I've been to a few times.

Where are the horns?

Walruses don't have horns. They have large tusks. Horns are on the outside of the body. You numpty.

I was hoping that someone would challenge my numbers. I mean, thinking about it, maybe some topics got purged since then. Maybe some topics got deleted? For all we know maybe 10 million would have been reached last December. We'll never know.
