I read on another forum, that a submission was made to the Guiness book of records for the largest online thread on the internet. Though there isn't a category for it yet, it is easy to fake (hax0r).

Nevertheless, this is the highest contender I've ever seen. Post any bigger ones out there.

PlanetBlackandWhite - Poking contest - 53434 and counting

IGN has at least one well over the 100k mark, on the GTA board. I think they started another one, though.

***DIT: The Race to 1 Million v.2 teh REVENGE (Moderated Version)***

The thread linked above currently has 54014 posts, it is one of many on IGN Board's Vestibule. If the link doesn't work, it's because the IGN Boards system can't handle that many posts in one thread.

Who the hell could talk in one thread for 54 000 posts? Threads often go through 3 or four topic changes in about 5 pages. I cant imagine how many topic changes there would be in 54 000 posts. I would guess about 30 000 though. Im surprised anyone would have any idea what the hell they were discussing if they left for an hour or two.

That's why I don't like the Community Threads that people insist on having (IGN in particular).

Why not try to break the record, then? With our community and the activity within it, it would only take about 100 years to get to the point they are at now icon_wink.gif
