Well, to be fair, the new thread id values aren't related to the original xoops ones, so thread 1 here isn't necessarily the "first thread" after the crash.

Anyhoo, carrying on:

Hmmmm, thought the post time and date would have had some impact during the conversion process, guess not, I'll get my coat...


It did, but remember, the initial forum import only incorporated content that had not been flagged as deleted. The chances are the original xoops thread with id 1 was some test thread, long deleted before the xoops version of amiga.org went live.

So technically, that was the first legitimate forum thread? Bleh, number 1 is number 1 :D

I can make no guarantee to that effect :D

-edit-

Look who's number two...

I reckon the 'Men's toilets, Secretaries, that sort of thing.' thread would be a bit inappropriate for the forum today with it being PG & family friendly... :)


I think they were just happy it was confined to the one thread. Although it wasn't, there are several similar threads with titles matching "X, Y, Z... that sort of thing"

There's one about amiga t-shirts. If you weren't online at the time, the whole t-shirt scam may have passed you by. One of your countrymen finally received his after years of having given up on it, and it kinda snowballed...
