I petition that we close this thread. My supporting arguement is that it wastes bandwidth. Not sure how but I think it is because all 40 plus pages have to load every time. Fierofetish, we will allow you to start the new thread, "Paranoid II ". All in favor of killing this thread, make it "last post". Last post.

Yes, it may be wasting bandwidth, but this auction I've got going ( https://www.fiero.nl/cgi-bin/auctions/pfa.cgi?CATEGORY=6000other&ITEM=1110767754 ) will guarantee at least $86 going directly to Cliff that will help pay for the bandwidth. I think that should cover it. I've posted this auction mainly to help keep this thread alive.

in all reality there can never be a lst post to this thread. it will disrupt the space-time continoum(sp?) Which in turn will destroy everone whohas posted in this thread, creating chaos and havok for our loved ones, and even (worst of all) NOT ONE OF US WILL BE LEFT TO DRIVE OUR FIEROS!!!!! AHHHHHHHHH!

HHHHHHNNNNNNNNNMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOiiiiiiiiiiii!!! Ther you are!! I have been allowed to return by my fiendish Spanish ISP, to administer the KISS OF DEATH to this thread..and once the deed is done, I must return to the dark seclusion of my Spanish Castile dungeon...so...foil the Latino Subversives, and keep it alive!! Then I can stay a free man!!! fierofetish
Come on forum. Cliff has said we are wasting bandwidth. I know so much about computers that I can not tell you what he means. I am so dumb that I actually think the bandwidth which he is not happy with is that all 40 something non referenced pages have to load every time. Support the forum, post in "Paraniod II".
cliffw takes no responcibiliy for this post.

OK, it didn't start out with the intentions of becoming a marathon, by any means: just an innocent remark that seemes to have become a gentle monster. Cliff has recently said that he considers this thread to be ..well. worthless.He is the Boss, owner, bill-payer and the oracle.And so, in view of the rotten things that have gone on in the last couple of days, I would like to take this opportunity to say thanks for being lenient with this internet playground, and allowing it to continue until now.It has given quite a few people a lot of fun, and a place to come and unload some of the modern stresses we all suffer from..very successfully, I believe. However, perhaps now is the time for it to be allowed to die in its sleep, and wish everybody goodnight, and finally, to hope that this vandalism which purports to destroy this wonderful Forum, can be nipped in the bud right now.We need to stand together, as so many have already said, and fight to prevent PFF becoming a thing of the past. You have coped with an enormous load, Cliff, keeping this Forum on the straight and narrow...perhaps it may help to delegate some of the onerous tasks to some of the responsible Members here, such as Moderation ( although it rarely seems to warrant much moderation,we don't know what is involved behind the scenes.)

1.The amount of data that can be sent through a network connection, measured in bits per second (bps). 2.The range of transmission frequencies a network can use, expressed as the difference between the highest and lowest frequencies of a transmission channel (in Hertz, or cycles per second).High bandwidth allows fast transmission or high-volume transmission

Let's ask Cliff to archive the first 40 pages so they do not have to be uploaded every time we use this thread. We are not referencing them and they are causing waste. "Last Post" is a waste because we know that it is not. It just causes all pages to be uploaded. I think we are actually slowing down his equpment while it is uploading all 40 or so pages we do not need.
wow... i remember back when i was part of this thread like 30 pages ago.... back in the day it was simple and cliff had yet to tell us to stop... but now, it has been cursed and will continue FOREVER!!!!
btw cliff... how much of your bandwidth is used just by this thread? if its loading all 40 pages i bet its pulling more than Skitimes thread does
