This is an issue that's
come up before. See those posts for why FanFicFare doesn't implement whole-thread downloading.

It does not download all threadmarks, only the ones visible, so a lot of posts in the middle are not downloaded. Do you understand what I mean?

Back in Sept SB & SV changed to 'hide' ranges of threadmarks behind '...' links. Code was added to FFF then to read past them. Do you have the current version of FFF installed?
I ran the chapter collection part of FFF on the story given and found 3,359 chapters, which is reasonably close to what the site reports(see below). I'll start it downloading and check it later.
FYI, SB/SV have an unfortunately tendency to
not list all of the threadmarks for some categories when the list is small, or to report threadmark numbers that are off. There isn't much I can do when the site gives out bad data.
UPDATE: It took a couple hours with the
slow_down_sleep_time:10 setting I threw in, but I downloaded that story successfully.
If you still have issues or want a copy of the epub I downloaded, let me know.
