I can't access the screenshot since I'm using a public computer at the moment.  However, I will confirm that we did change the number of posts as a joke.  It is almost impossible for a user, let alone a New TBGer, to get 12 000 000 posts in less than a week.

Was the account created you messed about with a test account made by you or an account you didn't own?

It's also worth noting that the total number of posts on the site is still unaffected by this (check the homepage - as of now it's 471,964). We'd need about 25 and a half copies of the entire TBG Forums just to get 12 million posts.

And in case anybody's wondering, if you posted as fast as possible and had a standard 60-second rule from post 1... it'd take about 22.8 years (~8333.33 days) of continuous posting just to get 12 million posts. If you started on March 7, 1997, you'd be done today, and if you started today, you'd be done on October 23, 2042.

Was it done so Downs could test his new powers as a TBG Team member?

It was created by a spambot that was banned.

Yup.  We can actually do a ton of things with the TBG Team role.
We won't mess with you guys unless you all misbehave (you know what I mean) :P

And set them to TBGers above 1000? 1500 posts maybe...

A fate can be changed, everything will change. A destiny is just a container that keeps the liquid in - in this case a person.

I don't think customizable titles are really a thing that the TBG Team would want to do on the forums.

Should the account used to test changing post counts be deleted, as the test is over and the account was only used before the test for spamming purposes?

I don't consistently update this one but here is the last one from November: https://tbgforums.com/forums/index.php?msg=487216
It is at the bottom of that month's archive

also to actually answer the question it is If this leaves the first TBG page, we lose!

What???
A signature is a small piece of text that is attached to your posts. In it, you can enter just about anything you like. Perhaps you would like to enter your favourite quote or your star sign. It's up to you! In your signature you can use BBCode if it is allowed in this particular forum. You can see the features that are allowed/enabled listed below whenever you edit your signature.
LOL.

Is there any easy way to unsubscribe from forum topics (and can an admin do it for you like detailed in this thread)? I keep getting e-mails at all sorts of hours. It seems the only way to unsubscribe from each is to mark it in a new post on the thread, but I don't want to spam.
Not active here anymore, but I'll revisit from time to time.
If you need me here for any reason (e.g. updating scoreboards for games I run, questions about said games, activity required/requested in games I'm playing), ping me in the official TBGs Discord and I'll get on it ASAP.

Just chillin' out like:

This isn't the solution you are looking for but if nothing else I bet you can change the email address on your account.
