Resuscitation of a thread does not equate to 'still active'.

So why don't you just bump it instead of posting a link?

Is Orcus still around? I bet he'd love the idea of having the oldest active thread on Apolyton

alot of the people that posted in that thread aren't around anymore.
Incidentally, i found that thread because I was trying to find out whatever happened to werefox, and that was the last thread she posted in that hasn't been deleted. (i havn't checked the archives yet, so there may be some in there though)

i wonder if that post will EVER be moved to offtopic? or deleted? or archived?
surely it was only able to survive this long for a reason. it must have a guardian angel or something. maybe the mods WANT it there, sort of like some sort of apolyton tradition

connorkimbro, you should've spread it through PMs or just without a corresponding thread in the OTF. It just mighta gone unnoticed.

Open appeal to the Mods: Let this thread live!! If there is not a technical reason why it should die the show this thread some mercy!
If it cannot be allowed to live in its present forum, then can it be moved to OT?
If that is not possible, then could it be unlocked every year from Dec 1 thru Dec 25?
This is Apolyton History here!

While I completely agree with your emotions, this doesn't appear to be the best way to get Mod support.
C'mon Mods! Speak to us oh grand overseers!

It's amazing when you think about how many OT regulars have gone away through the years. TNapoleon, mrtemba, Gregor, etc...
I wonder what they're up to. I used to have great conversations with TNapoleon.

I've found an older one, but I'm not putting the link here, so that one doesn't get closed too. If you want it, PM me, though. It doesn't necessarily have the sentimental value that the other one has, though. It doesn't have a song.

That is a great song. Too bad it has been closed.
It would be good if a mod who closed the thread decided, say a week or month from now, to unlock the thread again so that it can be bumped a year from now for the next "generation". Assuming it was closed to prevent +1-ing in that thread by OTers.

Wow. December 1998 ... hell, I wasn't even aware of 'Poly at that point in time (wouldn't be until December 1999 ... registering in February 2000). I was playing around on another massive forum elsewhere on the Internet — a forum that faded into myth and legend in June 2001.
Long live the Amazons!

Seems to be a lot of thread closing and moving without the courtesy of an explanation lately. It couldn't have been Ming, Mtg, or rah because they would have added a final post before closing.
Yeah, open it back up! The '98 posts were xmas posts and the '99 and '02 posts were around xmas. Posting in this thread could have been an ACS holiday tradition.... Open it, please!
