Previously, a similar thing happened, when the number of pages suddenly doubled, and then halved again. Can somebody explain why this is happening?Welcome to the board, lilnemo! The reason that happens is because when a board has premium status on Runboard, one of the merits of premium membership is having 20 posts per page (rather than the standard 10). Whenever the premium membership expires, it will revert back to 10 pages. That's why you've been seeing the number of pages get larger or smaller, since whenever the premium membership expires, the posts per page decrease. When the membership is restored, posts per page increase.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Hiroshi66)Fri, 25 Apr 2008 21:45:22 +0000 Re: Runboard FAQhttps://bcjkdramasincalifornia.runboard.com/p2023168,from=rss#post2023168https://bcjkdramasincalifornia.runboard.com/p2023168,from=rss#post2023168I'm not sure if this is the right place to be posting this question, but ont the K-drama forum for 'Likeable or Not', the number of pages listed has been varying irregularly from time to time.

Also, a couple of years ago they changed the format of links so that link might have been a victim. This board supports most of the common BBCode but not all. There are a few add-ons (like the spoiler tag) that we have added here. It is possible to use BBCode in the Quick Reply box. Sticky a topic on how to use the features would be a good idea. However, for some reason we have a topic where users specifically ask for help in a certain feature. That topic can be found here: Need Help Using The Board? But that topic is not just limited to board features only. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Moises)Mon, 18 Feb 2008 20:49:25 +0000 Re: Runboard FAQhttps://bcjkdramasincalifornia.runboard.com/p2020911,from=rss#post2020911https://bcjkdramasincalifornia.runboard.com/p2020911,from=rss#post2020911 class blockquote ccwf wrote: See the Runboard FAQ for help with a variety of Runboard features.1.
