Yes. Of course.

An eighth of all posts and almost a third of all threads is a pretty significant loss. I'm guessing a catastrophic disk failure at some point?

I doubt it. Just a normal delete button will suffice. I'm guessing that you have never run an Internet forum?

I think he has not.

I was a minor mod for a few months, and I was mildly surprised at just how much spam there is.

I just saw it now briefly. I am curious to know how you selected the base. Is it random?

[BudgieJane]

I like the new way of displaying the number of messages someone has sent. As you can guess, since I haven't posted for a while the sole porpoise of this message is to find out how many massages I have scent.

And now you should not post anymore, to keep your prime counter...

That's a fine idea - pick the format randomly from a list,
so we get a natural variety of formats over time.
Is that chaotic or esthetically interesting?
