EvanG Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I'm just guessing here that a couple of UK posters are responsible for about half of that amount hahaha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, most have been moved to private sections of the forum. Â Google had shut down our ad account until we could scrub the site with any content that violated its terms. Â We would bring back one year at a time and let Google tell us what content violated and then remove. Â A lot of the older threads and discussions were archived, which meant we couldn't automate the process. Â I spent months unarchiving and moving individual threads one at a time. Â There are still years that remain locked away as I don't have the time to do this anymore. Â Hopefully one day, but for now, they'll stay behind the curtain until I can finish the process.

Popular Post Gracii Guns Posted February 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2019 Thank you @downzy for keeping the lights on here. We seem to be low on spammers and trolls right now, which is down to an excellent mod team, and a responsible user base. I do miss the Anything Goes of old. We had some corking threads. Most of us were teenagers then, so we weren't short of relationship problems, insecurities and unfulfilled sexual curiosity to openly discuss  5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be some sort of technology that could feed in the 2 million posts and spit out a double album from the content.
