I just noticed that whoever created the last discussion before this one marked a milestone of 25,000 threads in this forum. Far and away the busiest of the group. However, all that you win is the little bit of notoriety that this post generates. Sadly I didn't take the time to figure out who is the winner. EDIT: It looks like the winner is probably @EmperorBevis with today's WBAYDN thread. Way to go, Bevis!
wonder how many troll threads are buried in those 25K -- you know - the "my Heineken bottles are cracked" or "I don't like beer - any suggestions?" kinda threads. I'd bet at least a few hundred
Updated the thread title to clarify that this is a milestone for the Beer Talk forum. Since switching to this forum platform on February 22, 2012, we currently have around 253,340 threads across all forums. (It'd be much higher, but hundreds of thousands of old trade threads have been deleted over the years.) @EmperorBevis has created 54 of them.
I’m confused, per the summary page on my phone, we are 30 threads shy of 25k. Beer Talk Discussions: 24,970 Posts: 2,942,356 4 minutes ago
Well you ARE one time zone behind me. (But that is strange.) Edit: I just looked at the summary page, and my phone now agrees with you. And that's even more strange. Edit #2 @Todd Explanation? @EmperorBevis Do you know how to sell Rescind?
I'd help y'all out, but Christmas season comes only once a year. (And it's getting tougher all the time to beat those Aussies and Europeans to the punch. ) @AzfromOz @Shanex
@JamFuel & myself spent a good few hours, imbibing, strolling, relaxing & of course chatting and we both agreed that even though the site is the oldest online beer resource that the greatest achievement of BeerAdvocate is to create a society. The contribution of BeerAdvocates has created something more than a website or logging of beers & their statistics, but a genuine community, where the differences in our backgrounds, characteristics, experiences & environments can be celebrated in beer talk & friendships formed.
I'm on holiday and don't have the energy to start any threads right now, so the field is open. Strike while the iron is hot, people! Cheers!
Do I have your permission to start a thread with the title "Strike while the iron is hot" and discuss poking beer? Cheers!
But did you see above where I had to rescind the notoriety that was awarded to EmperorBevis? So the award is still up for grabs.
Due to moved threads and misunderstandings, this milestone is far from being reached for both @EmperorBevis and the Beer Talk forum, so I’m going to lock this one down now.
