And how are people posting to 23 when it's closed, anyway? Or am I seeing how many of the participants are stompies?

It's a trick. If you leave an extra window open in that thread, you can keep posting after it's closed.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

They leave a page with a posting box open until after the thread is closed.

Trust my rage

There's some way to do it, but I forget how. I think Cindy explained it the last time we closed a thread.

Certain to be a cross post

Gotcha. I've been at the closing of a thread so rarely, the concept of even experimenting with that trick hadn't come to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah, and I really do need to get around to fixing it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, and I really do need to get around to fixing it.

Change the code so anyone who does that gets a shock to their fingers.

That'll learn 'em.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Too bad we can't automate the rollover at 10,000, provided a name is set up in advance.

It would help at 4 am when forums sometimes rollover with no Stompy around.
