Sep 15, 2008 15:53:36 Although we are back for the moment, I don't think WotC has stopped counting threads rather than posts.

In the past we have had a tradition of having really long threads where things that could have been considered multiple topics have been discussed. In the future we should IMO keep this in mind and always start a new topic when something new comes up.

Or am I just being paranoid?

I don't think thread counts or post count are that important. I mean, I'm not that keen on having to fight to keep a posting space. If WotC keeps this board open regardless of the post/thread count, I'm happy. Otherwise, I'd still be posting over at the Piazza ;)

Hopefully you're right. And ofcourse, having the Piazza as our main base means we are no longer as vulnerable as we were when we only depended on one forum (that was run by someone outside the community).

Exactly.
