The Random Pic Thread has over 7000 posts

[Aaron]

The Random Pic Thread has over 7000 posts

And many are multiples. I know it sucks to think of losing the Fringe, but most of the originals are long gone. Maybe a clean sweep and a fresh start is what this place as a whole needs? Dunno, but this 4x4 site hasn't been much about 4x4ing as it has been about pretty, scantily clad women, and fighting over the same political nonsense over and over again. And while I prefer both, maybe smaller, more specific threads will be helpful in both categories.

But yes, RIP Fringe

[Eric]

I did say "or so" , 100000 might be a reasonable limit going forward before splitting a thread. LF has over 460000 posts which is well beyond some of the recommendations I've been finding and it recently reached a point where I had to make a server configuration change just to keep the thread functioning. That's no bueno, so going forward I need to split threads earlier, before they cause similar issues.

The first post in the LF "part 1" thread was 9/24/2005. Part 2 begins 9/23/2015, so there's a decade of history in that first thread. May there be decades more in the parts to follow. There's no reason for this to mean "RIP Lunatic Fringe".

Animated gif thread has over 7000, random pic actually has over 28000. There is no hard number before a thread needs to split. Nobody needs to count posts, if a thread starts risking resource issues it'll be closed and split off into a second (or third, or...) continuation of the thread. Nothing is lost, the discussion doesn't end, it really isn't much different than a new page in a thread. Fwiw locking the LF "part 1" thread due to resource limits was discussed in the news forum at the beginning of the year so this has been on the radar for several months already. "Part 2" begins today.

Good point!

[vb]

[Griz]

In before the next split

Looks like we'll need to reinvent the internet.

In before the lock....







Too early, maybe?

[Ageless Stranger]

New fringe.

[CherryokeeXJ]

Smells weird in here....like fresh paint and Lysol.

Where did Rex' sock go??

[birddog59]

Gml

wow

[Dave McDonald]

Look, a fresh clean carpet, like a blank canvas. Waiting for stains from drama dumps and gear oil.

[BumperMan]

I'm here someone grab me a beer, fire up the tunes and break out the horseshoes.

[birddog59]

Feel kind of like a condom, filled up and cast aside.

[birddog59]

[birddog59]

Rex read Bud's post also add a poll please.

[BumperMan]

And Kim. I hate you for getting that song stuck in my head.

[BumperMan]

Who filled the crapper already. This is why we can't have nice things.

[birddog59]

It will be easier for newbs to read back.

Anyone else watch this video and think of the midget immediately?

Oh, and good morning lewns.

[BumperMan]

I got the last post on the old. Well except Eric closing it out.

[BumperMan]

I was hoping we could all do the poll before it closes out.

[birddog59]

[Dave McDonald]

I got the last post on the old. Well except Eric closing it out.

I thought I was gonna get it, dangit.

[MountainJeep]

I dont get it

[birddog59]

[JeepWheelin02]

In on page 1.

[Scott91MJ]

well...that was kind of sudden, I was around when page one got posted, but was a nonmember lurking.

[JeepWheelin02]

Sometimes a fresh canvas is exactly what is needed. Now we can splatter whatever we want all over it.

[Ageless Stranger]

Bd, you should go back and post the sign from post one in your post with the brain scan, that way it'll show up on tapatalk.

[BumperMan]

I think we need to set some goals and structure. Maybe we should try to fill this one up by this time next year.

[BumperMan]

I don't want to adult today. Let's all skip school and go do something fun.

[birddog59]

I don't want to adult today. Let's all skip school and go do something fun.

I just want to go train dogs?

[birddog59]

How is Bea? Looked it up last night, she is 13.

[cheftyler]

I think we need to set some goals and structure. Maybe we should try to fill this one up by this time next year.

That's a lot of hoin' I like ambitious goals.

[birddog59]

Monday surgery for this 6 year old. I hate cancer.
