[Solved] How Many Pages?; Not really a problem. . . .

I've been using Zetaboards for a while now, and my friendly moderator on this site told me that there is a maximum of 500 pages per topic, but we recently surpassed that. I was just wondering, is there a maximum of how many pages there can be in one topic? And if so, what is it?

I have not ever seen any topic hit the maximum, if there is one. But if I had to make a random guess, it would probably be the limit on whatever type of variable Brandon uses. The limits on variables are not very small though - for example, the limit on the post count one is 8 million and something.

If you surpassed it, then we definitely know either the limit isn't working or 500 isn't the limit. What page is it at? The limit could be 512.

Hey boq,

I've never heard of a limit, but as Aeroice has stated there may be one but it would be extremely large and probably some power of 2. ;)
I know the limit is not 500 pages, as I have had topics on boards go into the thousands.
So, though it may be wise to trash the topic once in a while (so you don't encounter any possible errors), 500 pages isn't near any limit there may be. :)

Just to note, I think ZBTZ's old 'What are you listening to' topic borked the system. Think the pages were in the thousands, though.

Plus, it might have been IFSZ at the time...who knows.

Thanks gaiz!

Oh, and Aeroice, it's at 696 pages now, so I suppose it's just some arbitrarily large number. . . .
