Description of problem

Hello, strange thing occured today.

My main discussion topic suddenly splitted in two. I remember there was 36 pages than it dropped to 34 and the new, same named topic occured. Moreover, the original one was suddenly locked. I tried to unlock the original one and merge it with the new one but everytime the longer topic locks itself and at the end of my last post from the last evening lik appears that leads to the newly occured thread.

I would like to merge the shorter topic with the original one and continue in it.

Thank you in advance.

Hello @KneelB4Zod!

Yes that is right when your forum gets a set number of posts (Messages in a subject: 990 messages (once the limit reached, the subject is locked and splitted)
the system lets it get to 999 then it will split the old topic and then make a new one and lock the old one.

This is done on Every forum made all around the world not just our system

This is to make it more easy for our system to load the page faster.

Sadly there is nothing you are any one else can do about this as its a basic system tool.

Ah, this was the only one thing I was afraid of. Not even with paid packages this can be changed? I was on forums where topics had thousands of pages with likely millions of replies. As you can see not even one week was needed to exceed this number os posts. That's qite unfortunate and I'll be forced to look for another solution then.

No sadly this can not be change even with paying to move up a package

Well then. Thanks for informations.

Your welcome
have a great day.
