At the moment I don't think there is any limit to how big a single thread can get.. Although there is a limit with the UBB since after about 12 or so pages it starts messing up a little.

Maybe they've updated.. cause it used to start messing up at around 12 pages and people would double post etc. in the topic... hmm I just came from another forum where a 79 papge topic messed up the board by causeing topics to be posted blank. <A HREF="http://forums.massassi.net/cgi-bin/Ultimate.cgi" TARGET=_blank>http://forums.massassi.net/cgi-bin/Ultimate.cgi</A> just go to the discution forum and see for yourself.

It varies widely... I've seen successful 18-page threads and failed 14-page ones, on the same board. Basically, if your browser doesn't like it, the UBB won't either.

if you think that that word game is long.. there is a thread that has 300 something pages... on some board (forget where but it was posted on this board.)

Imperial Conflict Forums had once a thread "belgium rules" and it was more than 200 pages long... at the moment the longest threads are "tavern" with 72 pages, "the royal court" 57 with pages, "homosexuality" with 33 pages and "Norway rules" with 34 pages

The only limit would probably actually be on the hard drive size of the host compuuter. With newer hard drives, you could probably fit tens of thousands of pages on several dozen posts!
