There is no spam in Poly: every post is gem of reason and wit, to be celebrated and cherished for all times. Kudos to us for this great achievment, in creating such a vast store of human intelliegence.

I would presume not, since they are removed from individual post counts.

Wait a sec... Just went back to the 1 million thread... The dates (if I read them right) are beginning of May 2003...
So the first million took almost 5 years, and the second 2 months... 
Photoshop after all?

I don't think the 2 million is the correct number when starting from the inception of Apolyton. In all likelihood, deleted threads, and the majority of the UBB era isn't counted.

I see I have to get more BLATANT.
Next person that adds a + "whatever" in this thread gets a PCR.
I hope that was clear enough.

Well, hm, I wonder how long it will be until 3,000,000+ posts...a hell of a lot sooner than the last time. Maybe by this time next year. Optomistic--December or before; pessimistic--July+.

Skating on very thin ice there, MrM.
Since this thread began, there have been almost 4600 additional posts on Poly.

Anyone want to take bets? 
I think it will be later than that, Mr.M. I'd say somewhere in the later months of 2004, maybe early months of 2005.
Of course alot can change, seeing how unstable this place is lately

If Apolyton continues to add the occasional additional game to its coverage, and if RoN spawns a large new generation of spammers, then it will be quite possible that three million will have been reached in far under a year.
We've had growth of +8,000 members or so since the first million thread. Surely some of them will stay and become rapid spammers.
Plus, Conquests is coming up...

Immortal, that has got to be the best one I've seen in this thread yet. The suspicion of n00bness at first, leading up to the realisation that it is not a mistake but one of the most subtle spams ever.
Or maybe I'm just delusional.
Either way, +1 (or -136 as the case may be)
