    I was looking at the Midband forum and noticed the 3.ie thread is almost at 8,000 posts and over 630k views

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055115306

    I'm just wondering if there is anything bigger than that in terms of posts and views

    must be up there

    But that doesn't take into account how much is writen in each post which will affect the overall length of the thread.

    Good point.

    The longest thread then, must be the one with the most posts in it by Wibbs.

    And furthermore....

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    This one is pretty bloody huge http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=316566 with actual back and forth debate. Not just a plus one vibe.

    Posting in the "Bible, Creationism And Prophecy" thread & hoping to change anyone's opinions is about as pointless as a one legged man trying to win an arse kicking contest.

    Ah, but it's not about changing the opinions of the opposition. Its about convincing neutral bystanders.

    Geez, if you read the whole BCP thread you'd know this. :rolleyes:

    I think the question should be, what thread has the most words in it?

    This is pretty interesting now that i think of it. Is there any easy way to go about getting a word count for a thread?

    9000 posts and 713,358 views, all by the same 253 ex DJs whose days of yokes & partying are long behind them since they got married, popped a few sprogs & now have a lot of time on their hands of an evening. :p
