Yes but now it cuts at just 34 pages.












Of course, that's because there's now more posts per page.

That's tragic.  Ah well, life is forgetting.  Soon we'll all be mumblers in the nursing home.

Looks like the forum community board goes back to 2005.
Shame about the off-topic board though. There are a few surprisingly on-topic and worthwhile threads on there.

In the past, Dave has periodically gone through and deleted old threads to free up room on the server. With the election fast approaching, it wouldn't surprise me if he's gone on another deleting spree, both to increase performance in anticipation of heavy usage November 6 and to make room for the new maps to come.
