As we get ready to turn the calendar to the next year and wave goodbye to 2020, we are on the verge of a major milestone for the THP Forum. This year has been a trying time for a lot of people, but we are hopeful that 2021 brings you joy and happiness.
While the number may be fairly arbitrary to most, it is a pretty spectacular achievement for people from all walks of life coming together to rally and make it happen before the end of the year. Once it rolls over, nothing magical happens, but it is the little things, or in this case the big number things, that get us excited.
To each and every person that has spent time on this website or made a forum post, THANK YOU! We know you can choose to spend your time at any website or online golf community you would like to, and chose this one.
We have huge plans coming in 2021, kicking off with a week long spectacular we call the THP Showcase. If you have missed that info, you can find it here.
Have a safe and happy New Year.
@JB can you tell?
Not sure actually. The count is not done in real time, it surveys every minute or so.
I will go with "The THP Community gets it"
Happy New Years everyone and Happy 7,000,000!
Cheers to your putts aimed true, balls in the fairway and your memories always golden because of THP!
Many thanks to @JB and @GolferGal for the great community they have established, and to all the staff writers and creators who give us the never ending supply of golf information!
@JB how many posts were there 1 Jan 2020? How many did the forum start with this year?
I genuinely don’t know.
I would like to think that doing a million a year from here on out is pretty doable and could be a lot of fun.
I would like to think that the THP Showcase will bring a lot
Thanks to @JB @GolferGal @Jman @Canadan @Molten and @MWard for all the work put into the forum this year (if I missed anyone I apologize, still no caffeine this morning)!!!
Happy New Year THP!
Here’s to reaching a great milestone and a prosperous 2021!
Thanks JB and GolferGal for this site
I want to wish everyone here a VERY Happy New Year. Be Safe and enjoy
Thanks @GolferGal and @JB
What a number…congrats!
It speaks volumes to the tremendous work all of the THP staff put in and the dedication of @JB and @GolferGal to make a fun, enjoyable space for this community to grow as it has.
Can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2021!
Maybe if HR @Canadan would speak to the CEO @GolferGal and C-suite @JB about this year’s post drives, that could happen. Those quarterly post drives were awesome and a lot of fun!
I could not have stated it any better.
I think it’s very doable. From Dec 8, when I started tracking daily numbers, to Dec 20 – about the time @Canadan got us all fired up for the sprint – we averaged, 2,755 posts per day. Over 365 days, that’s 1.005 million posts, which would put us over the finish line probably around Dec 29 or 30. I have to believe with all the special events and such, not to mention someone emerging as the next @MWard, we will average well over 2,755 posts daily, perhaps as much as 3,000.
The engineer in me wants to know this, so I will try to track our progress on a weekly basis. I would ask any THPer who is on the forum around midnight CST to grab the total messages number and post it, so we all know what the starting point is. {Please don’t PM me and blow up my inbox.) I don’t think I will be near a screen at that time. I’ll either be asleep or enjoying a toddy with Mrs. Reframmellator.
Happy New Year to a great community!
I love that @MWard is a unit of measurement now.
I’m glad that my speck of dust of a post count contributed to this milestone.
Happy New Year to you! Thanks for taking the lead on the numbers crunching.
Moved all posts to this thread!
