Eagle of Fire | Probably, but it will difinitly take a long time. And in the beginning, we will be able to think that the users did read the first few pages first. |

Lonely Vazdru | Do you think this thread will begin a new UFO rage and will eventually become bigger than the original UFO thread ? :blink: |

Yeah, on the other hand all of the questions in the X-COM thread have been answered about 90 times by now. Why don't we keep the thread but have a STICKIED little FAQ with all of the technical stuff, but keep the 'lets trowel through this lark' option in there. |

A. J. Raffles | There are jokes in the joke thread that are repeated at least three times as well, by the way, so it isn't exactly a brilliant example for a functioning long thread either. |

unlike the joke thread which (at least in theory) provides equal amusement on each page, X-Com thread addresses specific problems... times and times over! and by the way, just as a fun fact, not that the joke thread only has 65 pages, while the C-Com thread has 123 (that's one hundred twenty three) pages and is thus the longest thread on abandonia (and allmost 2 times longer that the first runner up!) |

So? what about the jokes topic? isnt it 194 pages or something? If I want a good laugh I just go to page 79 or something and read on..... |

a1s | well if such *carzy* volounteer would be found, you could close it and make a X-Com FAQ thread somwhere (with new questions deleted as soon (or better yet in 24 hours, but that would be a bit more work) as they are answered (in the FAQ)). |

moogle | Yup..... |

A. J. Raffles | That might reduce the length of the thread, but even if it was "only" 50-60 pages long, most people probably still wouldn't bother to read through it and keep asking the same questions over and over again... |

The Fifth Horseman | Get a volunteer mad enough to take pains cleaning it up from unneccesary posts / repeated questions. |
