Fine... For all of you *cough* wierdos *cough* who want me to keep a copy, I'll dump the forums to keep the threads, including these forums. :) They'll probably become local on my computer, but I'll let you know. ;)

Yeah, I'm dougk_ff7. I have a sig. Just not here. It's huge. And a bandwidth monster.

Enough fragments?

Will this forum be pruned and then deleted or just deleted? There was a question about post count earlier on.

I don't know - does this drop you below 1,000 posts again? :P

I think the right way to do is to prune then delete. While you certainly don't want to keep a bunch of useless posts (and it was stated that this forum would be deleted up front), IMHO it would be nice to know that this board handled x-number of posts to keep the historical stats correct.

Just my 2 cents worth....
