Shut up
I thought we were trying to promote more discussion...
This isn't discussion
See, maybe THAT is the problem...I think you shut people out Gantry...
Like Walter Johnson?
No like Walter O'Brien

British humor, truly the worst
No, I believe it's been well documented that YOU are the worst.
Gantry
British humour
Sage
Galavant
If I'm worse than British comedy then I need to pack it up
Don't let the door hit your bum on the way out, chap.
Perhaps Gantry isn't being served.
But he is getting clowned on the regular.
If you ask me, Gantry is absolutely fabulous.

ABFABGAN!!!!
Really, Gantry has just been keeping up appearances for a while now.
New goal is July 1st, if all goes well all the following will be true:
* We'll have a million posts
* SMF 2.1 that's currently in beta will be released
* The desktop Broadwell CPUs will be out
If all this is the case we'll have a new server, forum software and operating system all to coincide with the million posts. It'll be glorious!
I predict the world will end on June 30.
6000 in January and already over 1200 less than 3 days into Feb.
we're awesome
Lots of posting about the Super Bowl and about how bad Dee-Nee has been lately.
we're the worst
We should somehow make the millionth post be at the next Dee-Nee fest.
No.

so are you suggesting we start slowing down, looks like we are on pace to get there before August
I can always shut it down for a month or two
But when will we hit 1,000,333?
I'll also be furiously deleting posts so I can make #1,000,000 million
But then someone else will delete a couple to take away your accomplishment and steal it from you. And then someone else will do the same. Back and forth. Forever.

Gdavis is Mr. 999,999.
It looks like April is the worst posting month we've had since 2004.
RIP Dee-nee.
Month ain't over yet...
Just checked the #s, oh dear
We had a good run...
I blame Jim.
Time to put this horse out to pasture

I've had a down couple of months when it comes to posting. Admit it: You guys need me.
We do have 70+ more posts today than any other day this month.
DeeNee Lives!!!
It's not how you start, but how you finish
The next time Herlost is out of town, I'm going to have another movie marathon of all of the recent "Old Liam Neeson Kicking Ass" movies. I know that doesn't help today, but it's a promise I intend to keep.
Can I quote you on it?
Sure, how much would you be willing to pay me?
How does 30% of the ad revenue for that month sound?
Wait, make it 40%
Net or gross?
Yes
Kane and I have to have another bloodsport/kickboxer film fest thing soon as well.

We could probably do a podcast series on par with Serial discussing the bar fight scene from kickboxer 4.
We have February 2013 within our sites, only a couple hundred posts. Maybe even top the 3700+ in March 2013 with a fuckton of posts, perhaps the draft thread. WE CAN DO THIS
Here's the tentative schedule for the Neeson-athon™ this summer:
6/22
Darkman
6/23
Crossing The Line
6/24
Rob Roy
6/25
Seraphim Falls
6/26
Taken
The A-Team
6/27
Unknown
The Grey
Battleship
6/28
Taken 2
Non-Stop
6/29
A Walk Among The Tombstones
6/30
Taken 3
7/1
Run All Night
BATTLE motherfucking SHIP!!!
I would never advise anyone against watching Battleship but Neeson is barely in it.
I'll consider it a bonus for that day, then.
My rankings of the ones I've seen.
1) Battleship
2) A Team
3) Taken
4) Taken 2
5) Non Stop (fell asleep during this one and never finished, the beginning just really sucked to me).
Also, it appears as if your viewing order is chronologic. Is this correct?
I always shoot for chronological, as I mostly did with Schwarzenegger and Stallone.
we're in a slump. Somebody needs to take one for the team.
"A slumpbuster is if a team's in a slump, or if you personally are in a slump, you gotta find the fattest, gnarliest, grossest chick and you just gotta lay the wood to her. And when you do that, you're just gonna have instant success. And it could also be called jumping on a grenade for the team." - Mark Grace
I was wondering if you were going to try and work The Phantom Menace in there - it has action scenes with Neeson.
I'm kind of upset Love Actually didn't make the cut.
OK folks I think we have a new goal, lets get to a million before (or during, which would rule) Tempo and I take on the 24 Hours of RBI for charity:water (https://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=14578.msg999591#msg999591) on July 11th. That's the upper limit of our posting output for this year (6000 posts a month) but it's easily attainable.
Can we make this happen? Are you with me? ARE YOU WITH ME?
I'm in, you da man Gantry!
Support most appreciated...

Does the poster of the millionth 1000000th post get a Dee-Nee giftcard or shopping spree or something?
That's fair, $100 off anything in the Dee-Nee store
There are 995 users registered and almost 29,000 topics. What if the 1,000th user starts the 30,000th thread and it's the 1,000,000th post?
Think piece
we would have to start about 600 topics with two posts each to do that.
Depending on weekend traffic, Monday could be the day.
I'm so excited!
Maybe even tomorrow if we get a huge posting spree on the 24 hours of RBI thread. So yeah, after the weekend...

Think piece
There have been 3,233 members (though a significant number of them were spammers that registered in 2011) on Dee-Nee based on the user number of the latest member. The actual 1,000th member would be either the mighty
chewbarod (https://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?action=profile;u=1000), or a deleted account (#1001) if you exclude Forum Admin, or the mighty
Steveo (https://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?action=profile;u=1002) (no relation to Stevo) if you exclude Forum Admin and Gantry.
Because of around 650 deleted threads, the 30,000th thread was actually
Tenille (https://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=30000.0) started by Tempo on 6/17/15. However, there doesn't appear to be a thread #1 anymore, so the earliest thread on the forums is #2 wherein Gantry posted about increasing the Dee-Nee bandwidth on 7/23/02 (https://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=2).
As far as 1,000,000 posts, it looks like Dee-Nee is close to 1,010,900 posts including deleted ones. I'm looking for the 1,000,000th post (each post is numbered independently of the thread it's in) so I'll come back once I've found it.
HERE IT IS!
Congrats, Gantry!

Back on track!
Since the 1,000,000th post was so bad, let's just say that whichever crosses the line next (minus deleted threads) counts...
We'll have a party at ground zero for the 1,000,000th non-deleted post. And I'll keep deleting posts until that person is me...
How close are we at this point?
On the main page, you've never seen?
Shutup!

* The desktop Broadwell CPUs will be out KIND OF - released but they are shit so everyone including me is waiting until Skylake.
If all this is the case we'll have a new server, forum software and operating system all to coincide with the million posts. It'll be glorious!
Dah Nah
275 (or so posts to go)
I think we can get this handled by midnight tonight, lets start some new topics.
150 to go!!!!
Totes doable
62 away!
It's happening this afternoon!
Now we're 150 away? SHENANIGANS
Whoever did that better not do it again, seriously.
If sucka free shows up and deletes the original Random Thoughts thread we may not get to a million until 2018
There are provisions to prohibit deleting threads of a certain size as there was a big uproar when someone deleted one years back. Then again who knows if it works anymore.
One month ban for the next person who deletes posts or threads, I'm not going to investigate the last one but I am not amused.
::)
15 more!
Would be a shame if someone deleted another thread...
hey Gantry, we seem to be close
This is more monumental than the million man march.
WE DID IT
(https://catmacros.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/delicious_cake_cat.jpg)
What was the post?
Dunno
I believe it was the one where I was telling Gantry we were close. It was 999,998 when I went to post it, but someone posted something else in another board by the time I hit the button because it was 1,000,000 when I looked back at the stats and I had the last post.
I was trying to set the stage for Gantry to tell us all how much we mean to him and all that jazz with the millionth post, but oh well.
I've been recording and editing it all night, here it is:

It shouldn't be difficult
I like how Attez still has more posts than me and he's essentially been gone for 8 years. Man, that guy posted a lot.
I was impressed with his ability to stay away. He got mad, said he was leaving, and he left for good. Kudos, I wish more people in the world had that ability (I'm looking at you Garth Brooks, LCD Soundsystem, Lance Armstrong, Wizards-era Jordan, etc.)

He came back for a few days in 2015. But that was it.
Guys, if we keep up this level of posting (370+/- posts in the past day-and-a-half), we'll get to 2,000,000 posts sometime in 2029!

The warranty says it's good until 2030, so we're fine!
I don't typically recommend the extended warranty but this was money well spent
Gerlost, crunch the #s to make it by December 31st of this year
We'll need more than 4,400 posts per day to get there!
Sounds doable
Im pretty sure we average, like, twice that many already.

March was the most active month since January 2018, and April was more than any month in 2019. May and June were only 15 posts away from being higher than any month in 2019 as well.
I think all we need is a worldwide pandemic to hit that post count
