Spring Cleaning v2009

No problem, I understood how you guys feel. I wasn't always around this forum much besides the past 6 months or so when Ive been modding. But looking back and seeing years and years work of peoples heartfelt works all saved in this special place was really moving. I wish I had time to sit and read ALL of it, but now at least some of it is saved.
 
so far I've archived everything by

Raz
Up All Night
blahblahblah and his other names
liquidphil1
ILoveYouWithAKnife
Mehm/Jimmy The Gun

It is very easy to do everything by a single poster. Please give me more suggestions :)
 
^ Hasn't MNIND already archived all of those + everything else with a reply? That's how I read it.

edit: OK I just checked someone's work and it hasn't been archived. Now I'm not sure what MNIND is talking about! Oh well, please archive:

I hope I haven't forgotten anyone. Sorry, I know it's a lot of work to save everything but I really don't want to see this stuff just deleted.

I archived everything in the pending deletion forum with replies. Did you guys search the pending deletion forum or the words forum? Because from what I understand, everything in the words forum is new enough that it isn't going to be effected by the prune.. I thought that was what the pending deletion section was for.. no?

*confused*
 
Okay now I am really confused. I thought that the pending deletion bin was a holding place for everything under threat of being deleted. I wasn't archiving things from the WORDS forum because I thought everything got moved to the other place. Gah! I'm sorry guys. I will archive what I can.
 
Everything in pending deletion is getting baleeted sometime today. Then, I believe another chunk of stuff is being moved in there and then you get to focus on that.
 
Since everything that is older than 6 months will eventually get deleted, I jumped the gun and archived everything from the above users.

Some of it was archived. I went ahead and did everything.
 
Ok, I've gotten this far

Unfortunately, I have to go to work and a gathering later. Hopefully I'll make it home to finish up. It doesn't seem like TOO much will be lost in this first purge. I will definitely get to everything else before final deletion takes place.

Up All Night: Thank you very very much for your help and urging with this project. I've been posting in here for about 6 years, but my memory is obviously not as sharp as yours :D

peace

OK! everything (non-active) from everyone mentioned so far has been archived.

=D
 
Awww amazing. Sorry for being a pms-y bitch before, but you guys have both done an awesome job. I still think it's pretty sad anything is going to be deleted, but I really appreciate the effort you've gone to. It's actually been good in a way because it's forced me to go through old stuff and remember all the posters who I used to love so much (even though I didn't know them.)

I'll probably have another look through soon just to make sure there isn't someone else I've missed, (big apologies to Samael, I remember liking your stuff) just to be sure.
 
All the little moments that make up your life. Some are lost, some flare up and leave an impression, and are filed away in your mind equally at the mercy of time. You forget about them. One day you pack your life into tiny boxes that never quite manage to hold it, and a piece of scribbles or a photograph falls to the ground and you're reminded-- or maybe you're on the streets and you hear a laugh or a flash of colour, and you (get the idea) turn-- into a little moment trapped in your fallible memory. It's yellowed a bit, tattered a tad, holed.

You can never quite relive it, never quite the same. You can never share it.

But every moment in here, every protracted love/hurt affair, every drawn out sigh, every drop of word and tear and blood, is waiting to be discovered anew, to be nudged and bumped, to be relived by the intrepid explorer of these emotionally-mined, literary landscapes. That's what makes it so special, that's why nobody ever moans about a thread being bumped.

So no, I don't agree with the pruning/archiving. But you guys will do what you have to do and unfortunately it's always for the greater good.

I agree with this sentiment entirely, and it's cool:I don't quite have the same tenure, and I had my name changed during the process. I was asking for it with that last bit.

Oh yeah:

rewiired done

and sorry I forgot you to samael (if that is your real name). your stuff rocks :)

anywho, done and done
 
Wait, is everything from the list on the first page done then? Can you check them off the list when you do them so I don't go through all the trouble of all the searches?
