Not much in the way of prizes, but the member who posts the 20,000th post (it wont really be the 20,000th, since about 1,000 have been deleted due to accidents and the like) will recieve a custom user text of his or her choosing.

Just a small one to tide us over to a big one.

My best estimate is that when someone posts the 20,000th post on this site, it will be accomplished.

I really hope someone doesn't try to post as many useless posts as possible just to get to 20k. I remember a certain user on this site who had over 1,000 by himself....but never said anything usefull.

Quality is better than quantity. BUT, the prize for 20k is so small it's not worth the effort to make 100 useless posts at the last minute...

It's just a custom user text. Not spam worthy. It's not like we're running a "whoever posts the most in 15 minutes wins 1000 dollars" contest.

I'd guess 7, maybe 8 if I were you. Just do the math. It's taken us about 6 to get to 19,500 right? So, double that about and you get 20,000 posts. So I guess in about 6 more months to be on the early side, I just wanted to give you guys a quick heads up.
