I don't know how that would work. The forum must be created post-by-post, and I don't think I can just insert pages full of posts.

Too bad, too, the most popular topic on Fogbow really ought to be "Call Me Gav". :lol: :oops: :roll: :mrgreen: Umm ... no. :?

Terrabytes Shmerrabytes. We're talking Petabytes. =) And in the early days things didn't take up much space. My videos don't even take up the most space, they're roughly around 8 Terrabytes.

Yeah, you'd have to do an unwieldy "cut and paste" for hundreds of pages. I don't touch Windows or Mac OS's with a 10' pole (nor do any of those close to me), but Linux has all sorts of programs to automate such tasks. I used them all the time on my forums, websites, and game servers before I gave it [the servers websites and such] all up to return to Mexico.

It's a darn shame we lost all them semi-pr0n photos of his wife's butt. :P

No, wait ... that's a feature, not a glitch. I never did find her very attractive.
