    Is it considered bad form to revive an old post, say something that is a week to two old versus opening up a new topic? Personally, I like opening up an older post and just adding to it as you get all of the messages that are in that post. When opening older posts, what is considered bad form?

    That's just new posts. Not to mention the replies to other posts. I find it's easier to be active with something if you enjoy it and so far I'm having fun with this game. :grin:

    I've seem some of the earlier posts and wouldn't mind replying to them, but I didn't want to if it's considered uncool to dredge something up that is two weeks old. If I get a couple more "go for its", then maybe I won't worry about it.

    i say it depends, dragging up posts most want to be forgotten is annoying, but others that are informative and intresting don't, or people can just live with the later anyway.

    Bringing back an old topic is great if you have an oppinion to share, but not so if you do it just to get a post count..

    Etalis, inform me, how is it you have managed to avoid being bitch-slapped by Jinxed by digging up all these old threads? How have you avoided the wrath of Jarinor? You know he, most of all, hates a grave-digger....

    Is it the After-Hours Service (TM) you provide them? :pacman: :hump:

    Etalis, please, I'll ask you this once, stop digging up old threads, it's not funny, it's annoying.

    I am feeling more wrath building up. To whoever asked the question, Etalis hasn't felt my wrath until now because he deliberately waited until I was asleep!

    Etalis, there now no administrative place for you in my regime. Wait. Yes, there is. You can be the first course of Nugitsâ„¢ served up on the opening day of Milo's Nugitiserâ„¢.

    Etalis, get with the times. I've already enlisted most, if not all, the regulars into my regime. I have DarkUnderlord, Vlad the Imposter, Sheriff Fatman, Milo, Kozmo_Naut, ThreeDogs, rosenshyne and several others.

    Watch out for Milo's Black Ops Division and Vlad's security forces by the way :grin:.

    Oh yeah? Well, my regime is a complete army of my schizophrenic personalities, complete with several imaginary friends and a sheep.
