Someone starts a new one. We were told way back when that over 1000 pages makes the forum software do unfortunate things.

Hehe. The 3 "!" are just the long standing tradition, along with spelling it in all caps.

This is actually the near end of the 7th incarnation of THE THREAD!!! 3 in the old WitP forums and 4 here. Brother Onime is right. Much content from the first incarnation was lost during a forum software backup because that one forum thread contained too much data. That unfortunate incident is still referred to as "The Great Abridgement". If I remember correctly, 400 - 500 pages were lost. Since then, we have voluntarily ended the old and started a new incarnation of THE THREAD!!! once we reach 1000 pages, to stay away from another such incident.

Think about it for a minute. 7 x 1000 pages x 30 posts per page. Mix in the posts lost in The Great Abridgement, and we're in the neighborhood of a quarter of a MILLION posts on THE THREAD!!! over the years.

ALL HAIL THE THREAD!!!

No arguments there. No way I will even get close to those post count levels.

Beating a dead horse...err...camel?

We don't have a TV, so I'm really happy about the fact that I got to miss that whole camel thing.
