Retired Never Was, Coulda been wannabe
Do I have your attention? Ok, good.
Ever since the last site prune middle of last year, the staff have talked at times about doing away with the Archives each of our forums have. No, we're not actually deleting them, but we question the merit in retaining the content there - nobody can reply, it's read only. So yeah, good stuff is kept...but...any further discussion is denied.
Instead, we're proposing to move all threads from the archive sub-forum into the main forums - ALL relevant content in the main area, no archive. This keeps the content more available for revival by member discussion, and streamlines a bit of our site management.
We wanted to put this out here for you all to digest, offer some feedback, and tell us why this is such an awesome idea that should have been done two decades ago (or not). We'd like to start doing the merges later this week, so think about it a bit. We expect there to be a few exceptions, so if you see a forum that deserves special treatment, let us know in this thread (we already spoke with the mods of TR and NASADD).
