On Topic: Max on list creations per IMDb User?

Is there a maximum amount of lists one can create using an individual IMDb account? Presently I have 376 lists. Don't others (not for an inability to sign in to an old account) make duplicate IMDb accounts to make lists for suggestions here? I rather not do that. But will I run into some list ceiling in the near or not so near future? I do delete the occasional list from much older suggestions that I've given up on. And no. I don't delete lists that are chained to live polls (though I suspect there are some people here that do).

Yes. One list short of a thousand lists is the limit.

@jeorj_euler​ If that's official then I'm no where near that limit.

More than a third of the way, but indeed mostly not close. Anyway, I'd think if my answer is incorrect or outdated, then the board administrator would delete my post against my will. Just to note, the maximum number items that can be in an IMDb list is ten thousand. Let us try not to get the figures confused.

@jeorj_euler​ Wondering (hypothetically speaking since I'm a long way away from this ceiling)? Does IMDb give the user a popup when you hit 999 lists or the list creation button just become grayed out and the user is left wondering what happened.

I don't know, but I seriously doubt it.

I guess Paok (@Aris_Athanas​) should know what happens since he has reached that limit.

As Jeorge said, the maximum number of lists a person can create on IMDb is 999.

The person (among Poll authors) who came nearest to that is Paok-Kilkis.

As of today he has 879 active polls (he is the poll author with most number of polls) and 867 public lists (some of them are about his poll activities). So I guess he deletes lists of the polls which do not have any chance of re-push.

993 Public lists.

998 public lists.
She is the closest to that barrier as of now.

yrnej actually created a second account because she was running out of space for her lists: https://www.imdb.com/user/ur95767427/

I was unaware of this. I don't see her on the poll board these days. What happened?

There was somebody on here that insinuated that Jen had done something controversial, but yet the Jen's account hasn't been removed. Quite a lot of people have stopped interacting with the forum, for no publicized reason. Whereas some others have taken the care to deactivate their accounts, while continuing to monitor their notifications, and others banned from here for being too rude (or bigoted) too often, perhaps libelous.

IMDb staff exemption perhaps. By the way, that particular account is able to create lists of videos.

I'd imagine that some IMDb member accounts having the IMDb Staff badge are very special and limited to specific functions, but likely none of them have supreme privilege access to system, as there would probably be a separate system for that purpose, accessible via only a special bridge interface.
