    Who will have the honour of the 50,000th post to MG forums. Should happen soon. How about Tim and Jim providing a potted review of the MG site, to date. How it's grown over the years, etc. Bazza

    Kodo, Twinny, Goldfish and G.T. have more than 50,000 between them.
    Or am I missing something?

    The stats on the main forum page list the current post total as 172,874. Sort the members list by posts and the first page alone exceeds 50,000 by quite a bit.

    At the time of posting this thread, originally, I was confused. I meant thread number 50,000 (not post). My thread was number 49920 when I entered it as a new thread. Will check out thread number 50,000 to see who it was, just out of curiousity. Sorry for the stuffup. Bazza

    When you run your mouse pointer over any post, or thread, on any forum front page, the thread number appears at the bottom of the screen. When you access any post, or thread, to answer it, the number appears at the top of the screen where URL's appear. Bazza

    Apparently, no one gets the "honor", which that-- as they say-- and, what, now, $1.95? will get you a cup of coffee. Pesky Mods, spoiling all your fun.

    It was a valid link when I mentioned it. It pointed towards another forum. As you say, it is now "Invalid Thread specified". No connection with me. Bazza

    Read #17. It was deleted by the moderators as it pointed to another forum competition. Baz
