100,000 Articles? And Free Domain Names: Only 15,000 GC$

intelliot · 10-13-2005, 01:18 AM

With the recent loss of posts in the Books forum, I want to again encourage posting. Our goal is 100,000 articles.

I'm going to raffle off a prize when we reach that number.

In addition, I'm going to give a prize to the member who writes the 100,000th post. That is, the post that this URL will link to:

http://www.googlecommunity.com/post-100000.html

We are currently at 61,417:

http://www.googlecommunity.com/post-61417.html

Only 38,583 posts to go! How are we going to get there? By posting more!

As if that weren't enough (it is), I'm going to give you another reason to post: a free domain name.

I've restocked the shop with FIVE (5) domains of your choice to give out, AND I've LOWERED the price per domain by 1,000 GC$: from 16,000 GC$ down to 15,000 GC$.

They will be registered at Yahoo Domains for FIVE (5) years and be redirected to the URL of your choice. You can also give the nameservers you'd like to use, and I'll set them. This is valid while Yahoo Domains has the $2.99/year sale. New domain registrations only.

Remember: GC$ has no cash value... but you can use them to get awesome stuff!

So, what are you waiting for? GET POSTING!

Disclaimer: you must continue to follow all community guidelines. Put some thought into your posts: longer posts earn more GC$, better posts earn you more respect.

Offer subject to change at any time. GC cannot be held liable in any dispute.

[Dec 22: downgraded to sticky. When we reach the goal, I'll make a new topic: I think 8 pages is enough for one

]

July 7: Goal reached! Writing a new topic now..

May the domains be *.com or *.net?

Hey, 61,417 posts is itself an achievement I look forward to see GC crossing 100,000 mark.

Keep it up

Seems pretty friendly, to me. A surly way to get people to post, would be to shout and threaten them.

Sorry. I couldn't resist.

Hey, I`m new around here.
And since we all know I`m going to write the 100,000th post, I`m curious about what these GC$ are?
Google Community dollars?

Please do not double post:

nevermind...

I got it
