Heard on the grapevine that if we can get this rant to one million posts we will be able to end this recession and live comfortably for the rest of our days... Oh and the current government will be overtaken by a super duper new government that will look after us for a fraction of the wage that cowen gets. So keep up the good work guys were changing history right here:eek:

The thread with the most posts on boards only has 78,000 ish and it's been going for just over a year and a half.

So yeah, you're right, by the time we get this one to a million, the recession will probably be over.:D

Well that's purely up to yourselves if everyone pulls together and post a hundred times a day we can surely have this up to a million in no time. That said are people serious enough about changing our current circumstances to actually do something about it or should I create a new thread to bitch about the lack of support:rolleyes:

Sure we don't need a million real posts, we can just make them up by leveraging the 500-odd posts in the thread a couple of thousand times. Then if anyone asks where the posts are we can just get a bailout from Brian, who will make posting in the thread mandatory, or we'll collapse taking the internet with us.

We'll be out of this recession in a jiffy.
