What's F95Zone history?

This is the oldest thread. You can just change the last number to find it. As the name etc doesn't matter just the number does. Same with users btw. By the number you can see which # they are when making the account. Mr. 430208

I recall we had a complete switch of the underlying tech at one time, so I am still not sure if those numbers are actually true in terms of the original site. Probably only SAM who knows that exactly. But nonetheless your thread and mine are some 1300 from each other by those numbers, in a period of 5 month. Another anecdotal figure then...

Well I was told they are at least for users, think it was Sam was a while ago. That’s why I assume it’s true for threads too. Would make sense.

and changes to subforum ids are additive, without reusing old ones (see: free-speech.10). a later upgrade of xenforo to 2.0 wouldn't necessite breaking existing ids (links, bookmarks, etc.).

It's more that the opposite would make absolutely no sense.

Thread IDs and User IDs can be found in any post, because someone pointed to the right thread as answer to a question, or pinged an user. If at one point one decided to change those IDs, it would imply the edition of every one of those posts, in order to make the links match the new one...
In late March 2018 (more or less when Sam ended the big changes for the database infrastructure) there were already

that would have needed to be scanned in order to know if they needed to be edited or not. Way too many works, even considering that it would be automated, and way to many risk of errors.

The wild thing about F95zone to me when I first found it was that they didn't use any bullshit file hosting like rapidgator. Downloading 15 parts of the rar with throttled 20kb/s speeds and waiting 15 seconds after clicking free download... That was the usual experience when pirating anything from some random site generally.

I still remember how I was downloading 9Gb of Tinker Bell's Rondo Duo for a three days, because of the speed cap and multiple parts on one of these sites. And every time I had to solve CAPTCHA, which were progressively harder and longer with each attempt, and I had to pray each time that the connection speed through each of downloads was stable, in hope to not repeat the process again. And eventually, all pieces completed into one file (like a beautiful sightseeing after you've completed the puzzle). It was troublesome back then, but I was determent to see a good porn

But it is something that can be worked with.
