No one "stole" anything, Dee is just doing some spring cleaning:

It is stupid and idotic to think that a program like vbullentin can't support a number of post. I thought that vbullentin was the best of the forum software. There are many other forums that handle 100x this volume of posting. Cleaning out the old is a waste of your time. Maybe it is time to upgrade the server.
As both Clay and Dee have mentioned numerous times, the posts are not the problem at all. It's the number of sub-forums that seems to be causing problems. The BMO connection itself probably adds quite a bit of "stress" as well.
Personally, I'm 100% behind moving the BMO forums lock stock and barrel to a separate board. I'm fairly certain that things will be much more stable all the way around that way.
Yes, I know. For you and me it's humor at least. For Bobby, on the other hand...
True...
Oh jeez. Now my post count's lowered. :(
Oh well, back at it then. :)
BMO itself is played on a different server.
Yes, yes it is...
But the posts from the old dead leagues are on this ;)
Ah, good times, good times.
I lost a couple hundred posts as well :(
You crybabies. Who would want to have the most posts on an internet message board? I'd see that more negatively myself, but that's just me.
Lives... get them. And don't say "I'm only online during the day at work and have some time to post." :cool:
Kinda like the Bill Murray flick "Groundhog Day". Except, not like it at all. We do have the opportunity to correct our past posting transgressions now though. So it's like being a born again Christian, kinda, but not really. :confused: Where's my beer gone to now?:confused:
good to see dee back in action i missed her.
wow i just noticed i'm down to 10,000 from 19,000. guess i took a hit
Well, as long as you're not complaining about how you lost internet message board posts, you're OK. :cool:
This other forum I post on has a "posts per day" calculation in the user profile. Seeing some of those numbers is absolutely insane.
I lost over 6,000!
Not the record though..dabruins has me beat!
We spend a lot of time padding, that is why I am mad...If I counted how many hours Mikey, Dabs and I padded, it might be weeks ;)
That is why this sucks, how much does a single thread have in terms of memory (1 kilabite?)
Yankees....oh sorry......post count!
I love all these threads and posts about post counts.....ok I was kidding....YANKEES!
Wow, I can't believe nobody has bumped this thread yet!
Oops.
Lets see how much of the BMO members post counts goes down.... with this board maintenance....
Post counts in BMO also mean activity, translation (how active are you)
wow. I've lost another 500 posts over the last week. Keep cutting a man when he's down
