MacRumors Reaches Three Million Posts

MacRumors Forums, the discussion boards for the MacRumors family of sites, has reached the milestone of three million forum posts.

The 3,000,000th post was made by member WildCowboy at 7:31PM EST on Monday, October 30, 2006, in the MLB Hot Stove Thread 07 thread of the Community Discussion forum. Congratulations, WildCowboy, and congratulations, MacRumors!

The first forum members joined MacRumors in June 2000. Today, only six years later, there are over 88,000 registered members and over 247,000 forum threads. The forums cover Apple news and rumors, Macs, iPods, software, tips and help, and other topics of interest to the Macintosh community. The forums reached one million posts in August 2004 and two million posts in December 2005, just 10 months ago.

The MacRumors 3,000,000 Post Apple Advertisement Contest is now closed to new submissions. An announcement will be made when voting for winners begins.
