I think that it only disappears if you take it above 254 very quickly. Like I did with my marathon posting.

At Apolyton they put a thread way over 254 posts. Must be possible with Ultimate Bulletin Board.

Remember we don't know the actual values because, ahem, you posted so many as to break it anyway. If we had posted one post at a time, It'd have been ok (maybe). Try posting a 253 post thread (using your patented methods) and then add one to the count until it breaks. good luck.
