You would have to delete hundreds of posts to make much of a difference. That would take ages.

If you are the OP on a big thread then you could delete it which would probably make a difference but would irritate the other contributors.

Possibly it is processing for Watched Threads that causes the timeouts that give rise to the Error Message. For a large thread there may be many "lapsed" members who get informed of updates to the thread.

Those of us with a large post count could try to remove some from Chat style threads. Would that make a difference?

I think that the site is becoming too clogged up.

The easiest solution for GR might be to accidentally woosh a couple of large threads.

Perhaps they could instead, just close the large threads but allow them to be read. Then new threads could be started with a link to the old one in the opening post.

Same as Sylvia.......I guess they are tinkering again

As for the 'search' facility...............it's about a year since that worked! Google works better

Like Elizabeth, I'm receiving the error messages on the Games Threads.

Not just on the word threads but also on the food one :-|

I haven't been able to get on My Threads for almost a week.

I can access all the other Boards, but not My Threads :-(

You have 49595 post against your name - that might have something to do with it.

I only get it on 2 of the games threads - both such well-used favourites that it's not surprising if the many years' memory chokes the system a bit!
