    Some past maintenance sessions (or were they full upgrades?) caused some high posters to lose a few thousands of their posts - Sheel, for one. Any chance I could lose a few thousands too? It's kind of getting embarrassing now :o

    And no, don't tell me to log off and stop posting. Giving up smoking was a lot EASIER. :rotfl:

    The mysql database for this site must be HUGE. To be honest I'm amazed that it works smoothly most of the time.;)

    I wouldn't.

    Martin might. For the sake of the servers. It would be a "moneysaving" solution. :p

    10,000 Posts Combo Breaker Rampant Recycler Hung up my suit!
    This site needs to get rid of the 'dead wood' posters, there are huge numbers of members that have posted a few times then never been heard from again.
    Yes they help boost the numbers but surely if they have not posted in over 2 years it is unlikely that they are suddenly going to become regular users.
