To the degree that posts themselves, and not videos are an issue, there's a lot of post whoring threads that could probably go right away. As long as we try to maintain the integrity of the review threads...marathons, brackets, clubs...I'm not sure I have any preciouses. Still, all my reviews until the past year or year and a half are on my blog. The newer stuff isn't so much but *shrugs*.

I can see preserving 100% of the movie related threads, except trailers. All the clubs, reviews, etc would be untouchable.

Probably stating the obvious, but all reviews and the discussions that follow should be the last thing considered for trimming.

Not sure if you noticed from Sam's post in the recent Best Songs of All Time thread...

The first link shows properly as an embedded video, the second one doesn't (same video).
Code: [Select]

So the problem might be something else than too many posts/videos etc.

The server is overloaded with posts/videos.  This has been reported to us from our host server.

And marathons, filmspots, top film lists, etc.

Yes, all the film threads would be saved.  For now...

I can see pruning the Top 5 board before say 2013 maybe?

I would think that most of the big threads in Movie Games could be trimmed down to the last few pages.

Yes.

The hardest thread and most important will be the MUSIC thread.  Anyone who wants to make a suggestion there?

Everyone's post count will be drastically changed.  Yep, it's happening.
