EZBoard doesn't have an archive facility, so when "General" gets to around 7-8,000 posts, it deletes some... there's only a month's worth on there at any one time. All the other "fora" are fine, since they have a long way to go before EZBoard gets its hands on older posts.

It's not ideal, but plans are underway for a longterm solution :-)

They are recycled and all electrons previously used returned to the environment.

What happens to older posts on the CUK forums?

I can see 20 pages in General but the earliest (on page 20) is in August.
This obviously means that the forum is very successful and busy but it also means that relatively new posts are apparantly dropping off.
Doing a search for my own posts brings up just one because I haven't posted for a few weeks.
Cheers,
NGGU
