If it helps (probably won't) I just successfully threadsucked Natter 31 from post #4700 on to the end, but then got the same results as Kristin, when I tried to do it from post #3700 on.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Did it ever work for you, Cindy? I remember Tom tweaking a thing, and relief ensuing. Was it yours?

The status is NOT quo.
I can suck from 4600, but not 4500.

ita, it always used to work for me. Then I started having trouble if I wanted to suck too much of the thread. I don't know if I ever reported that, but I think DX had the same issue, and reported it.
Then I started having trouble, and Tom did something that fixed it. Then I started having trouble again.
Today I could thread suck a little from Natter ~600 posts. When I tried ~1600, it wouldn't work. And I just sucked BBaBB from post number 9000 to the end, and it worked. I couldn't suck from 8000, though.
Just tried again, and can suck from 8500 in BBaBB.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Just to throw another data point in, I had no problem just now sucking the entireties of either Natter 31 or Bitches 19.

Our wings are not tired.
That Cindy, she doesn't suck.
FWIW, I just sucked all of Natter with no issue. Firefox/XP Pro

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Is Strega a stompy? I've noticed I can't block ita, amych, -t-, DX or Strega, and I'm guessing it's a stompy thing. It was a kind of a whoa moment, since I noticed that I couldn't block Strega first. Not that I was going to, but it was a short post, and there was the "block" on the post before, and the "block" on the post after, but no block on Strega's post. Except now I see that -t's not in the stompy listing either.
