Well. Good news. My thread batching code works beautifully. I transferred every forum in the Drunkard's Walk section that didn't have posts since the scrape, and locked them here. Bad news: phpMyAdmin or MySQL is unhappy with unusually long posts -- like Pyeknu's story chapters and the Nanosteps thread in "Future Steps". Something in them barfs when I try to insert large text blocks into the message field of a post record. It also barfs if I try to add them through the board editor.
Anyway, to get those threads up successfully, I'm going to have to chop the text chunks into smaller pieces and post them in individual messages.
I've also found and installed a spoiler markup plug-in, so all our spoilered stuff will stay that way.-- Bob

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.
