Why are large threads a big deal?
« on: September 30, 2012, 10:28:50 PM »
I'm just wondering. It seems that 10000 posts in one thread would take up the same amount of space as 10000 posts split between 10 threads. And large threads are awesome.

Large threads are locked and later deleted to help keep the drain on the server more manageable.

Orion....that's the one with a bunch of power chords and boringly harsh vocals, isn't it?
