I take no responsibility, either. I tried to entertain with as many cheesy jokes in your other thread as possible

So, what's everyone doing for St. Paddy's Day?

Hey! Let's break the world record! Only 166, 616 posts to go!

"As of the time of writing, I saw that Kenny Sia’s blog post entitled “an unfortunate accident” posted 18th May 2007 has had 947 comments in 7 days, from 18th May 3.20am up to 25th May 11.42pm. This could be a record for a Malaysian blog.

Then I wondered, what is the most commented blog or forum thread in the world?

According to Jason Kottke in March 2006:

He’s seen 1000+ comment threads on Dooce and that posts on political blogs like Daily Kos probably have consistently more than 1000+ comments.

MetaFilter’s longest thread, posted 24th August 2001, entitled “metafilter parody” had 1729 comments, starting 24th August 2001 until commenting was finally closed on 20th September 2002, more than a year later.

The Matrix Reloaded thread at his blog posted 15th May 2003 had 1,767 comments in 6 months. It had to be spanned into 2 threads because the blogging software he used (Movable Type) was “beginning to buckle under the pressure”.

Engadget’s “It’s our 2nd birthday and we’re giving you the presents!” post on 7th March 2006 at 1.11pm attracted 3,324 comments. The first comment was posted 2 minutes after the blog posting and the last 24 hours later, 8th March 2006, 1.24pm. Amazing.

Slashdot’s thread at the end of the 2004 US Presidential Elections entitled “Kerry Concedes Election To Bush“, posted 3rd November 2004 at 12.39 pm got an astounding 5,687 comments, with the last one coming in more than 2 weeks later, on the 18th November at 11.24 am.

However, the mother of all comment threads is apparently the SpyMac forum thread which seems to have “about 167,000 comments.” However, it looks as if it’s just a number game there, as it was apparently a deliberate attempt to set the record for the world’s longest discussion thread ever."
