Damnit, stop bringing topics back from two months ago just becasue you're reading the back logs and decide you have something to add. People stopped posting to it becasue they're fucking done w/ it!------------------ quote: Posted by Dark-Angel99 on Aug. 08 2001,21:23
If they are still there, why not add a comment? Who cares anyways? If someone has something to say let them say it, thats what this forum is all about right? ------------------ Posted by solid on Aug. 08 2001,21:25
Reviving old threads is sort of a detnet no-no.

Hey now, only certain people are allowed to revive dead posts. If you have under 200 posts and revive a dead post be prepared to hear some whining.------------------ Posted by Observer on Aug. 09 2001,11:08
It's not really a board-wide no-no. You just piss off a small faction of people who don't want to re-read their own arguments again. As Jim once said in the < very first > Classroom thread, "If the topic isn't closed, then it's still open for discussion."------------------ Posted by incubus on Aug. 09 2001,12:47
amen.

Oh yeah, bringing back topics to life is a no-no, then you have to make a new topic about the same subject.Then you will have the other half of detnet falling on you because "there's already been a thread about that, and you should post it there", and Observer will even have the kindness to post a link toward the old thread! thus waking dead threads, and you have this half of detnet crying that you shouldn't have woke a dead thread, etc,etc,etc Well, with that we get cought in a paradox where we can't post at all, so I suggest that detnet UBB forums to be closed now!</sarcasm>
