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.
	
 
		
		
Just to throw another data point in, I had no problem just now sucking the entireties of either Natter 31 or Bitches 19.
	
 
		
		
That Cindy, she doesn't suck.
FWIW, I just sucked all of Natter with no issue. Firefox/XP Pro
	
 
		
		
I did not know that "Steve have mercy" was a browser.
	
 
		
		
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.
	
 
		
		
Huh.  I can block amych.  (I just tried because it was the post above Deena's.)  Am I not supposed to be able to?  I haven't noticed any others because I actually kind of forgot about the whole blocking thing.
	
 
		
		
You tried to block me?
Sniff.
I'm so hurt.
Strega is not a stompy, nor is t-. The current stompies are ita, Jon B, DXMachina, P.M. Marcontell, Liese S., and amych.
	
 
		
		
I'm not sure why you can't -- she's not a stompy, and I have block next to her posts.
