from when this reaches 10 pages. Of course, Denmark is always 2 pages ahead of us, using Greenwich Mean Standard Posting Time.

The standards are always mean, my little non-conformist. Always mean.

OK. That's just weird. How can some people see 2 more pages then there are? Different number of posts on each page?

Same here. 40 posts per page, not 50. Did they change the default for this at some point?

Edit: And like Laminar said, nope:

The forums default is 50 posts per page.

It's been that since at least as long I've been a member.

I have it set at "forum default", and I get fifty per page.

I don't think you can get him back. We're not friends anymore. He did something to compromise my privacy (No, nothing horrible or sexual. He just gave one of my enemies my email address and then I got a very strange email...).

A similar thing happened to Spider-Man.

Me too. Well, I guess the mods didn't want anything to get too out of control. You know what happened last time...

Oh, lots of people created dupe accounts, I sockpuppeted (not realizing it's wrong) and it caused the mods lots of trouble. Which is why cwk MacBook was banned--to avoid that trouble and chaos starting all over again!

You sure get a lot of mileage out of that GIF.
