The Self Referential Thread

[General Zod]

Never tried it. I certainly like grape juice so it has to be pretty good I would think. 😀

😀 😛

I have seen some places in Missouri advertise it 😀 😛

A new day has dawned and it's sure to be a great one for our Armada. 😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

I still haven't quite understood what's going on in this thread... lol

 

[milagros317]

The real core purpose of this thread is to refer to itself. 😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

Oh, so by asking about the purpose of this thread I wasn't exactly off topic? =O

 

[milagros317]

Not at all off topic. The real topic is self reference. 😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

This thread is getting to me mentally!

 

[milagros317]

This thread has actually quite a long, long history. 😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

So I imagine. It gobbles my mind! 😛

 

[milagros317]

It has more than 4,000 pages and Kurch tends it very carefully. 😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

Yeah... I was going to read it from the beginning to catch up, but then I noticed that too... XD

 

[milagros317]

It would have even more pages but almost all of it was lost in the great pruning of December 2004. 😱
😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

That was well before my time on this forum, so I officially have no idea what you're talking about! 😀

 

[milagros317]

The TMF outgrew its server in December 2004 and began to freeze and crash a lot. Eventually it was moved to a new server. But before that move, as a temporary measure to preserve functioning, about 250,000 posts were deleted to make more room and end the freezes and crashes. 😱 About 47,000 of them were mine and the other 203,000 belonged to other people here.
😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

LOL! Ouch, that's gotta sting! So you'd be well beyond 200k posts then, if that move had never taken place? Sweet!

 

[milagros317]

Yes, I would already be over 200,000 if not for that pruning. Not that I worry about it. 😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

lol, I guess you kinda stop caring after 100.000, eh? Next stop is 1 million anyways, amirite or amirite? 😀

 

[milagros317]

Once I got past 50,000 posts I only cared about multiples of 10,000. Mostly I just post for fun and don't worry about the count. 😀 😛

 

[Carsomyr]

lol, well it's still a status-symbol, isn't it? 😛 Epic win to you!

 

[milagros317]

I like having so many, yes. 😀 😛
Some people point to it as evidence of wasted time. However, the time that I spend posting is taken away from mindless TV watching.

 

[Carsomyr]

Indeed! I only watch TV when there's a good hockey game on, although I prefer live streams on the computer when available 😛

 

[milagros317]

Time to insert my one and only Canadian joke (which might apply to other northern countries where hockey is popular):
Why do Canadians have sex doggie style?
So they can both watch the hockey game. 😀 😛
