I guess I wasn't here for them and besides they weren't listed in the seven pages of threads that are curently listed here in the SE:IV forum! My guess is they haven't been posted to in quite a long time or the threads were 'retired'!

Cheers!

They're there. Just need to increase your "Show topics from Last 30 days???" on the Forums front page to "Show All Topic's"! 105 pages total, I believe!

Read the very first page -- fascinating what caught people's attention back then.

By setting the Posts to show the Last year I found both the "Pirates life" and Gryphin/Growltigga threads. Ye old Cantina must be older than a year. And although most surely worthy of honorable mention, it has long since been replaced by 'Ye New.."

IMHO, it seems that Threads with 500+ Posts are the 'Hot ones' and really deserving of being placed into some kind of Hall of Fame! There's barely a handfull of these 500+ threads!

I'm proud to have fathered one of them!

Cheers!

The Catina thread got so big they were asked to spawn a replacement. So I think the two Cantina counts should be combined.
