    Would it be possible to archive ONLY the Support forums permanently? Sometimes issues creep up that can be solved by threads that are fairly old. Deleting them permanently seems like it would just invite more work for the TSR team.

    Is there a particular reason the archived forums have lost all player signatures?

    It's all a big loss, all the old lore posts made for some great reading.

    I, too am archiving them. I had a little bit of a setback when I upset the Admin at my hosting company when I overloaded the shared server I am on, hehe.

    I spent about half the day today setting up my own linux server, (a few hours isn't bad for someone who doesn't know Linux hardly at all imo), while the other half was spent with my sister, who just had a baby.

    That said, I am back to copying the old forums, (ironically it should be -faster- using my own computer), and should be done within a day or two.

    Without trying to put you down, have you not re-synchronized the board lately or something, because if you have, and you are only showing ~50k threads and ~650k posts, then I don't think you are close to being done.

    Please repost the entire P7S1 thread, I find it hard to imagine you have forgotten about it

    The forums have finally finished populating. I blame SoE for it taking 3 weeks.

    I am now ensuring that everything worked properly, which should take a couple days. Once that is done, I will have it available for viewing.

    Statistics for anyone interested:

    Posts: 2,220,966 (You guys are a talkative bunch).
    Threads: 138,389 (I'm not sure if I trust this number yet, it might be counting some empty threads).
    Users: 52,123 (Note this only counts users that posted at least one time).
    Posts Per Day: 701.42
    Threads Per Day: 43.71
    Users Per Day: 16.46
