Actually its billions Whats the deal with this guy? http://forums.digitalpoint.com/member.php?u=24804
I am tryig to get it as my phone number... My next house will be on that number too... It's magic. Looks like he had all his posts removed and that somehow cocked up the count.
http://www.google.com/search?&q=2,147,483,647+php If he became active and started reping people with that kind of post count...
Thats pretty funny...I wonder if the Rep part recognizes that post count...He could actually red rep Shawn so he lost his signature
It's actually a (My)SQL limitation, not PHP. I believe it's the max value for an INT field. Anything over it will be capped at that magic number. Left me scratching my head for a few hours once when I got into PHP/MySQL coding a few years back.
Over at v7n, back when I had a post count of 666 and I made a thread to pze add a 1 to the PC (1666) to remove me from the curse, John maxed my post count and it ended up at 2,147,483,647 for a day. My rep power was in the hundreds of thousands, John was asleep, and as I reped a few people, both red and green, the mods freaked out, not knowing the rep could be fixed to how it was before I did it.
