I have excluded any specific MPSIMS threads. This list is of all the threads longer than 100 posts with the exception of the alias thread that I included to illustrate the length of two combined threads. |

156 posts is the record? Where's Ruda Duda when you need him?

Check out the smoking threat on the flame board. Four pages and counting.

Indeed, as DavidB. said, check out Great Debates. The 'S.E.T.H.' thread is almost 5 full pages with 235 posts.

I agree with Mike King. Ruda Duda and the original MPSIMS on the AOL board were far longer than anything we've seen here. For one thing, they were continually active threads for longer than this whole board has been in existance! Ruda Duda was about...what... 6 months? MPSIMS was about a century...

Sheesh OpalCat, and there was me thinking that you couldn't be even nearly aged enough to join in this Old Timer thread about how much better everything was back in the old days..

What kind of a format did AOL have? Yahoo, for instance, has topics 10 0000 posts long, but since it shows 40 at a time, it does not take forever to load a topic.
Doesn't look like THIS is going to be a very long thread. How do I find threads from April when the search thing is useless as it is now? |

You find 'em by setting your screen to go back a full year in showing topics -- and then looking by hand.

The format on AOL was to see one post at a time, and it had next/previous post and next/previous thread buttons on each, in addition to "reply" etc. It wasn't web based at all, incidentally, it is proprietary AOL stuff.
