Is it still the rule?
Seemed like it would never end.

They probably didn't want a second thread for it. Can't say I blame them.<p style="font-size:1024px">HTML is disabled in signatures

One of the Chiron Chronicle discussion threads over in AC-Fiction went up to about 750 once.
Of those, about 450 were made by one person, who used the "Reply With Quote" feature for every post above his.

If by "interesting things", you mean "weird, evil, godless abominations", then I agree.

The circumcize my kid thread was very interesting, someposters posting thoughtful factual things while others just said he must look like his dad so i had them mutilate it .The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits

There were about 50 interesting and thoughtful posts, and the remaining 700 consisted of posts like these-
1- "I'm circumcised/not circumcised and I'm OK. Therefore this must be true of humanity in general."
2- "I spend lots of time looking at other men's tackle and I've noticed...."
3- "I hate you. You smell."The genesis of the "evil Finn" concept- Evil, evil FinlandComment

Of course, if anyone could make posts really really REALLY quickly, they could get themselves a custom avatar in just one thread...
...oh yeah, and then get permabanned as soon as the mods noticed.
The lyrics threads in the OT have frequently been closed when they got above 500 posts. Don't know when the current one is due to close..."Love the earth and sun and animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown . . . reexamine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency" - Walt WhitmanComment

It's the less visited forums that get the post counts above 500.
There were three US bashing threads in Civ 3 - Civilizations that were running concurrently. They were also the only threads being posted in at the time. It was like an echo, the same arguments in the three threads at the same time. Some people took it to an extreme and copied/pasted their exact same post from one thread into the other
They all got to around 700 posts before they were noticed. Still only one was closed. The other two weren't closed until a week later.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

Clear Skies,
there's more professional; sorry, I mean nooby ways to do that. Register 500 DL's and start a poll thread.
