    To all tpd dudes, dudettes and fembots, relax:

    Will also look at optimising the server a bit over the weekend to see if page load time can't be improved. Must say the load time is really good from here but will see over the next week how things look before suggesting that optimizing the tables had any effect.

          Can you imagine the rush to be the last ever post in TPD?

          That alone would probably bring the server to it's knees, defeating the object of the whole exercise!!

            Maybe they won't give a warning

            We'd better all start posting as much as possible now, just to be on the safe side

              It could be nearly as big as the rush to 100k.

                I can't be arsed to search now, but if you look in the vbulletin user forums there's a link to a topic with over 900k.

                  Yes! but it's not proper Drivel, so doesn't count.

                    Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.
