Marley23, I just now realized you had added the links to the existing posts with edits. Thanks! I really appreciate your efforts in this thread.
This one almost qualifies for “almost big” status and it’s the longest thread I ever started, by a factor of two I think:
Where’s JDT’s foreskin thread? That made it to like 11 pages; certainly it made 1000 views.
I just tried searching for it, used the wrong date criteria, and now I’m locked out for 200 more seconds. Can it be found?
I went looking for JDT just the other day after my Undo thread brought up the subject of Circumcision Damage and somebody said to go find Tyler’s thread(s). They appear to be older than my arrival (2003), so I never did locate them.
What dates did you try on your search?
Is “foreskin” in the title perhaps? Thread titles are much easier to locate than posts.
Given that the “over 1,000” criterion for Big Thread consideration was totally arbitrary on my part, I thought I’d add the next layer of threads from each forum to see if any of these would trigger some additional entries to the “Truly Great Threads” thread which has been dormant for a while. (See the OP for a link to it.)
All I did, after sorting descending by Number of Replies, was to select the first five threads after the 1,000 Replies point. That way, some of the fora with smaller threads will have some representation. And it gives a little more of a view into the Big Thread fora as well.
I’ve left off links to these so if Marley23 wants to add them, that would be great.

Done with the links.
The Jack Dean Tyler threads:
In those days threads were often split if they got too long, otherwise this would just be one thread.
Thanks, Marley23.
I’m wondering if just putting a link to this thread in the “Truly Great Threads” thread would be an adequate way of directing traffic between the two.
Or is there a better way to do that?
Aw, you remembered.
