Just something that I'm curious about. Does anyone remember that "secret society" thread from a while back? That thing got 1126 responses. Does anything beat that? Thanks. :)

There was one by Kayes about the member picture gallery that got 1364 responses. I think that there also was another that got over 2000.

That "rhyming" thread or it was titled "Lets say one word and you say the next" thread was the biggest of them all.

The mods didn't "kill" anything. The software automatically archives threads.

It is my feeling that "the most responses" doesn't necessarily indicate the best threads. I've seen good threads with four or five responses that were entertaining, thought-provoking, or educational. One of the threads I started which meant the most to me got only one response. So it goes.

Hey there WombatWoman, you've got to tell me where you got that status of "Den Mother". It sounds like a Zerg something out of Starcraft! :D

Hey there WombatWoman, you've got to tell me where you got that status of &quot;Den Mother&quot;.

The &quot;status angel&quot; visited me one night, bestowing motherhood upon me while I slept.
That's my story, and I'm sticking with it. ;)

Maybe it's time for you to adopt the virgin icon. ;)

AndyHui,

Actually, it was &quot;BUTTER&quot;, started as a rant by NWM, and it hit a little over 800 replies before the BBS crashed.
