Two Forum Discussions with Over 1 Million Views and a Special Badge Award to vgersh99

Working on the new badging system, ran across this by accident:

mysql> SELECT views, threadid FROM thread  WHERE views > 1000000 ORDER BY views  DESC;
+---------+----------+
| views   | threadid |
+---------+----------+
| 2105933 |    20364 |
| 1162297 |    37928 |
+---------+----------+
2 rows in set (0.08 sec)

Here are those two forum threads with over 1,000,000 views:

  1. Remove Duplicate Lines in File
  2. grep unique occurrences

In those two threads, there is one member who participated in one of those One Million Plus thread, our beloved moderator, vgersh99.

I will award a special badge to vgersh99 for this achievement and reply with the badge details below.

Congrats Vlad!

Done!

Congrats to Vlad (vgersh99) for the first lifetime achievement award badge from UNIX.COM:

"The Order of the Crab - Lifetime Achievement Award"

The first and only current active forum member to reach one million views in a single discussion thread. In that discussion, over a million people (and perhaps a few search bots along the way) were greatly influenced and helped by vgersh99. Thank You from All of Us.

You guys are making me blush!
I'm glad and thankful for finding this site many many moons ago - a good new "home" for contributing and helping others.
It's been a terrific ride so far!

Thanks for all the kind words.
Vlad
