+--- Thread: Junk and PM Prune (/showthread.php?tid=5392182)
* - minimalist - Aug 31, 2016
Man, lost ~1500 posts. Going to try to keep those posts scarce and about to export my very important PMs.

Nice work!
I noticed the website was down for a bit, and now I'm having trouble creating a thread, does this have something to do with it?

I'm also in the middle of PM pruning. That should take some hours actually. I don't normally take HF offline to do the PM prunes.
Enjoy and thanks.
Cool, thanks for the update.

Since we're coming up on 10 years of HF I think a prune of the first few years of posts is needed. When that prune happens then many accounts will have 0 posts and then those will get pruned.
Likely this will happen before the end of the year.
Nice to see you're (still) going to do that even though you didn't like the idea when I suggested it 2 years ago.

Only lost 200 posts rip 4200 :( but it's worth it if it makes the site run better.

Rep prune next :3 Imagine the many sadnesses that would be triggered on that day.

I am wondering when the rep purge is going to happen?

Doesn't that make you a multi?

I didn't like the idea 2 years ago because it wasn't the right time to prune. However, before we upgrade to MyBB 1.8x it must be done.

Yes.
A better question would be whether my ban was justified, but I don't think it's the right time to talk about that.

I'm wondering this as well.
People will get so mad though.
