We lock them after 10K on the NHL board just out of tradition.
Make v7Let’s test it
Mods used to lock them. And it wasn't unusual for them to go a few past 10k as it was. It was kind of one of the weirder hammer policies. One that is thankfully long since dead.
They’d probably make a v7.1Make v7

As I posted, it was said to put more pressure on server resources. It was meant to help stave off some of the issues we used to have. Everyone from that era remembers times when the site got massively slowed down or not available for stretches. 10k was meant to help reduce it. I doubt it did, but that was his request so we abided by it.There was a reason behind it, but it escapes me at this moment
It was years ago

We all asked shaggy about it when he took over and he doesn't have any type of cap. It's up to everyone's discretion.There was a reason behind it, but it escapes me at this moment

I know Ghost had to lock up my original I’m bored thread over on the NHL board because the old server couldn’t handle threads over 10K. That one got to over 16.5K before we had to lock it.
Wasn't around for ghost, but we asked hammer a few times about it and that's what he wanted. He eventually went to a high end server farm with several mirrors that could easily handle it, but by then he just wanted things his way because it was his way.Or what WizardHawk said.

When shaggy came I looked into it and found many sites with similar setups with threads well over 100k in posts. Things have changed a lot since the original hoop back in what? '09? Yeah, lots of advances.Ah right, I remember that now
I'm guessing by now we have servers capable of handling it
Good ole times though, I remember the original I'm bored thread LOL thought it would forever be the longest thread ever

Hell, every time someone bumps a thread from just 5 years ago I'm always like 'oh yeah, what happened to him?'. Kind of never realize people aren't here anymore until a solid old time bump.LOL big time, being here since day one it's pretty dadburn amazing to see how far it has come
Mamba going back to his old ways. Trying to divide everyone now by making one of the Pac trolls make a new thread. He knows it will split everyone up.How about the Pac 12 North thread until someone in the South outside of USC wins the conference.
