With the AmeliaMattClinic thread sitting just under 1760 and Andrea's pop quiz fast catching it with 1220, I was wondering which thread has had the most posts?

I would think it was one of the tour threads?

I imagine the two you just mentioned are far and away the leaders.

Yes, but Amelia Matt is 70 pages, the pop quiz is 40ish?

The length of threads naturally grows over time due to the increased number of members who are potential responders. The posting for the very 1st OFC tour got about 100 responses. Considering there were only about 700 members at the time and only 175 of those had ever actually posted, ratio was amazingly high.

Go back in the vault and you can find a thread about Josh White guitars with 45 responses, and ever one of them came from Sam, Temp or myself.

Long threads get boring and repetitive...

No they don't. They get repetitive and boring.

They're also not very interesting and tend to go over the same stuff...

Someone accused me of being redundant. I didn't understand what he meant, so I asked him to repeat it over again one more time.

Could be worse. They could have accused you of being superfluously redundant in an excessively supererogatory fashion.

I think one should eschew pleonasm and obfuscation.

But obfuscatory haranguing of a didactic nature is judged to be in conformity with the established standards of behavior with a view to illumine the collective unconscious of the denizens occupying the second largest country in the world, eh?
