Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted October 25, 2002 How about making a section in there for some of the old threads that no one wants to forget? I can think of a bunch of candidates off the top of my head: The APO Sucks thread by Zacky The OJ Hart Threads The Gnome Warfare Thread Ask Dames Metel Ed So?

The Dames 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2002 I was considering it...who else would like that? Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted October 26, 2002 why ask anyone else? this subject has been brought up many times and everyone ALWAYS wants it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dames 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2002 Thing is....some of those threads are LONG and there is always the debate on who chooses which threads are worthy, etc. I'd rather discuss it first than just go put it up and get billions of requests for threads to be put up.

Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted October 26, 2002 Bah. I say let me pick 'em. I have the best taste of any of these chumps. I know talent when I see it, I mean I see it everytime I look in the mirror! /promo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Angle-plex Report post Posted October 26, 2002 I asked for this a while ago. I think it would be a good idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted October 26, 2002 Dames, just leave it up to THE ESTABLISHMENT~! to pick them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted October 26, 2002 If the State's thread hadn't been decimated by the board transfer, I'd say include it first. If all the deleted old posts that still exist on the server but aren't visible can somehow be put in there, then by all means include it. Fo sheez, Kotzenjunge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Well Dames? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kinetic Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Oh, I wholeheartedly support this idea. Choosing the threads to be archived is a little hard, but I'd suggest having people suggest their favorite threads (no more than a certain number) and whichever suggestions occur most often win.

Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I agree, its a good idea. By the way, the Archives in and of themselves are friggin' awesome. Whose idea was it to create them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I say that The Gnome thread is a MUST have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted October 27, 2002 So very true, the Gnome Thread is pure awesomeness. I hope you continue with the gnome offensive, CWM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I will be, soon very soon. God damn neighbors are being dicks again. Blow their leaves on my lawn will they? I'll show them! *babbles incoherently* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kinetic Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I agree about the gnome thread. Good stuff all around. I have a wide variety of other ego-stroking suggestions to make, too. I don't think the world would object if Metal Ed's entire body of work was compiled. In fact, I'd do it myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I agree Metal Ed should get in. So Should The State's stuff. As well: The APO thread, and the OJ Hart Thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I think the thread where fkteale flamed FZM should be there. I also think the NewsRadio thread should also be there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Am I still the only person who thinks the dissections are a waste of time usually? Fo sheez, Kotzenjunge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest J*ingus Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Oh, that's it, Kotz. You're my NEMESIS now. Just wait until you make a fairly long post about something vaguely topical, and then you'll get the tongue-lashing (er, keyboard-lashing) of your cyber-life!

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Erm, okay. I'll just no-sell it and invalidate the effort as a result. Fo sheez, Kotzenjunge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Yea, but that'd be boring... just like the LAST RESORT~! Shoot, who did you use that on? Kurt Cobain was the last one, correct? Anyone else? I hate to look like an unestablished idiot but I can't remember. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I used it on that Ken fellow. And yes, ANYONE's flaming method can be invalidated by no-selling it. The FINAL RESORT~! just takes a helluva lot less time than the Dissections. Fo sheez, Kotzenjunge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sassquatch Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I agree with having a "Post Archives" here at the Smarts. It is like a history of the Smarts board and some of the fun/cool threads that have come from it. For the posters that took part in the thread it will bring back good memories. For the new posters that were not around when the threads took place it will be opening up something new for them to look at. I say "yay" to the Smarts having an archives folder set up so some of the old threads can be stored there for future preferences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest T®ITEC Report post Posted October 27, 2002 It's lost a page since it was first done.. I actually saved that thread on my computer. That was the greatest thread ever. I couldn't stop laughing while I was reading that... Good times..good times. EDIT: Spelling.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kinetic Report post Posted October 28, 2002 So... Are we doing this or what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted October 28, 2002 We should add that "Memorable BAD quotes" thread from General Wrestling, as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest goodhelmet Report post Posted October 28, 2002 I agree, its a good idea. By the way, the Archives in and of themselves are friggin' awesome. Whose idea was it to create them? I took time to setup the archives. Ever since the site began, we had always wanted an archive system but the limitations of the site prevented it from happening. We were stuck with the search engine (which really does work, by the way) until we discovered we could just create another forum for the archives. So we went to work on copying and pasting the articles to their new homes! The archives will now be updated monthly so the October articles will appear at the beginning of November and so on and so forth. Also, I encourage the writers to post a link to your archives in your articles so people can easily access articles they may have missed the first time around. Also, there will soon be a staff page replacing the about us page where a link to each individuals archives will be in place, underneath the brief bios. this will be my last contribution to the site for awhile. oeace!

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted October 29, 2002 I definitely support the old school thread saving idea. Metal Ed is a must-have, as is Bad wrestling quotes, and gnomes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
