in 4chan culture, the number of sequential digits at the end of the random number assigned to your post is a mark of... status? good luck? quality? I'm actually not sure, but it's a desired thing to have.
- loves_mangoes 3y agoMore backstory: The ID assigned to posts is a sequential incrementing number. So it is possible to "aim" for a nice round number by posting at the right time When people notice that their post IDs start approaching a large whole number, a bunch of people might try to get ("GET") the post with ID, say, 2000000 by timing it It's not really a marker of anything, just a semi-random event that people have fun with. It's sort of... tolerated, as long as it's infrequent and doesn't cause too much noise
