Say something epic happens on AG.
Just something so amazing that the ones there to see it have had their mind blowns by the sheer awesomeness.
But unfortunately like all things this leaves.
What if we had the ability to save threads?
Not a forum search or anything, just like a subsection within a forum with screen shots/links to threads that happen in AG that just made history?
I'm going off a whim here, and my argument isn't strong, but just think about it.

If you want a total count which includes game comments and user profile posts, hover your mouse button over the delete icon ... 6.67M total and growing.

Y/N is active/deleted count:

| game | Y | 3,257,995 |
| game | N | 631,836 |
| game | TOTAL | 3,889,831 |
| forum | Y | 1,206,948 |
| forum | N | 80,569 |
| forum | TOTAL | 1,287,517 |
| user | Y | 1,286,562 |
| user | N | 207,962 |
| user | TOTAL | 1,494,524 |

Total, including some news comments is 6.675 million 'comments'.

If we do migrate this stuff, we'll probably go on overdrive cleaning out spam comments and then only migrate 'active' game comments, user profile comments, and only active/locked forum posts.

If they do migrate this certain spam posts will be cleaned out. *cough*

That is a large amount of comments. If my math is correct:
6,675,000 comments / 703,152 users = 9.49 comments per user.

Of course the graph of users by rank to comment ratio probably is an exponential graph. Near the lower ranked users the comment count is probably very low (0,1), but then the higher ranked users have many comments (above 1, e).
