1000 posts a day would take 2,739,726,027 (2.7 billion) years.
On the other hand, 2.7 billion posts a day would only take 1000 years.

| No thanks. Not only would it take as long as Legato says it will, but I don't think that this forum will support that many posts. |

Lol, indeed.
The million one is going to take just under another decade, so even if you could do it, our members would be long one, maybe our great, great, great etc grandchildren might get a quarter of the way though  |

I don't think there's anything wrong with OCD, as long as it's mild.

Why not go straight for a googleplex while you are at it?
