Once a thread reaches 100 posts, it is customary to continue it in a new thread

BZZZZAAAAAAAT!!!!!!!

Wrong!

100 posts is the point at which it reaches the no-no zone. The greatest number of posts that this Board allows on one page is 99. The magic number to watch out for is 98; the number of replies. Adding the 1 for the original post gives the 99 that we don't want to exceed.

The problem is two fold: Having to go to a second page is a pain and years from now, when someone wants to link to the thread in question, the Board will only show the first 99 posts. Attempts to go to the second page will send the searcher off into CyberLimbo.
