[Random Variable]

ExtremeTech has a thread that has 92,000 replies, but there are probably longer ones.

[Jhill]

This one has a lot of steam behind it. Watch out.

 

[TallBill]

Eh, I've seen plenty that are 200, 300 pages. Maybe not quite 92,000 but still an asston.

 

[NikolaeVarius]

I'm sure 4chan/2chan had some absurdly long ones

300 pages is nothing if your thread view is 5 posts/page.

no the "What are you listing to right now" ones got much longer then that

there was also movie thread where people posted an actor and then the next person posted the a movie they were in and so on, that one got to be like 200+ pages for me and i view 100 posts per page, it died a few forum upgrades ago, it got so big it was taxing teh database

ive seen 500+ page threads on OT that were very active

Wasn't that the refresh script on the employment thread incident or were there more?

2,000,000+

 

[So]

Whatever happened to the "longest thread evar" which got locked right before it reached some ridiculous milestone -- circa 2k5 IIRC.

It was kind of a cockblock, IIRC.

GoGaia aka the worst forum ever created. As much as they suck, you have to give them credit for all the forum records they currently hold.

The canucks w00t thread was pretty long here... one of the longer ATOT ones, but definitely not the longest on the internet.

Wouldn't it be Ironic if one day "What's the longest forum thread on the internet that is still active?" became the longest forum thread on the internet that is still active.
