In all seriousness, wouldn’t it be lovely if the 100,000th post was Jack Schitt’s emotional return to Sotonians with some sort of scoop about how we’re signing [someone good]?
It would trigger an emotional outpouring similar to Mandela’s release (from prison, not his first orgasm post-Robben Island).
Likelihood is it will be Bearsy talking about how he wanked off Doug Ellis in a sauna in Birmingham.
Just so you bastards know, there will be no badge. I don’t want to get into some contest whereby people are hovering over the 100K, or deleting posts, etc.
You don’t want to bid too early to show your hand, but if you wait too long then Big Obsessed Bob will get the 100,000 posts badge that pap has promised.
There is a delay in the updating of the post count at the bottom of the page.
pap will therefore presumably have to tell us who actually posted the 100,000th post* by looking at the database.
*nothing could go wrong here. Everyone will accept his verdict. Nobody will suggest that money has changed hands for that valuable badge that pap has promised.
The Mighty Flightless Bird hasn’t been a member long enough to earn the badge, he needs to pay the £25 to join the super posters list and then he is eligible.
I’d very much enjoy having a badge, if one day I was to earn one. I’d wear it with pride around the house (not outside, I’m not a total loony, come on guys, are you saying you wear yours down the pub? I find that hard to believe, but each to their own I suppose).
