I can't speak for you....yes YOU....but, I think it's time to lose the "old forums" link. That way we can revisit redundant topics, and no one will ever know the difference! Kinda like starting all over! Like when you're about to dump your boring girlfriend, but she surprisingly dyes her hair blonde and buys a mini-skirt. Actually, it's nothing like that at all. Where am I? Hello?....Hello? Echo....Echo.
We need to keep it, if we cant than loose it in a month or something, It brings back memories and all :)

You mean on the front page EH? That's probably a good idea. I'll move this thread to the COMMENTS/SUGGESTIONS section where it'll do its job.

I think we should keep the old forum so future generation can learn about all the **** we've talked about. Oh yeah, we can't forget about Deckard Smith either!

I think people would be interested in what we are talking about now...

While Yoda said we must "unlearn what we have learned," must must not undo what we cannot re-do. Keep the link. Just like bad TV shows, if you don't like it or want to participate, don't click on it. Unless it's slowing up the new site, then I'd be torn.
Nostalgia rocks!

Yeah, what he said... No I think the link should stay somewhere. I still peruse those old threads for reference. There's some great discussions in there that beat the pants off the stuff in some of these new threads. But like Bel-Cam said, if it slows the system down then reluctantly I would agree that they be jettisoned into deep space with a memorial plaque for some alien lifeforms to try and decipher or eat. But my preference is that they stay.

Yes, JT....and exactly right, SS.....I say December 31st...AXE 'EM!! BWAAAHAAAHAAAHAAAHAAA!!!
Wait...let's be rational. I totally understand the need for nolstagia, memories, and all.....but come on....who's REALLY using them?...and when EPII opens?....Please.....there will be plenty to talk about, and tons of new JarJar abuse threads. Better yet.....that should be the deal: At the opening of EpII, we lose the old forums.

So if you delete the old forums then future generations won't get to experience the genius of the "I don't even collect the cards, but..." thread. Don't deny our children a glimpse at history. How else are they going to find out what raving lunatics their fathers were?:D

Nice going, Starfig873....you're now floating around in space handcuffed to old forums. Not to mention, before master jedi jettisoned you, he told me he "ankled" you. Now, I realize that's heresay, but that means your floating around, handcuffed to old forums, WITH your pants around your ankles. This is absurd...

No no, the archive has no reason to come down, just the link on the front page. Perhaps a link to it could be added to these forums?

***master jedi jettisons a bomb toward the bolt cutters.***
If we get rid of the old forums then we won't be able to look back at all of our stupid mistakes.

But seriously folks, as long as there is access to them SOMEWHERE we don't need the link on the main page. Just don't delete them:(

*crawls back to the thread with a death grip on the OLD forums*

Some what starfig?:eek: Thing is, if we leave them there - the old forums that is - we don't constantly have to explain things to latecomers. We can simply link back to an old thread and let them get on with educating themselves into this madhouse. :) If any of them get lost and don't make it back, then I say that it's natural selection in action :) :D :)

Now I have to remember what I typed. :mad:

Like Luke said: "I do. I [use my memories]."
These things would not have the same meaning if the Old Forums were to get the axe (as if they actually had a meanign at some point):
-ISE poetry
-"Pants"
-Disco Tusken
-Happy TIE Fighter of Love
-Sly, middle-aged Bothan with "authentic" hairpiece
-"Not Without My Jar Jar"
-EVERYONE being called *** by some poster whom I have purposely forotten the name
-Mucho mucho mas
Sigh. Sniff. Trails off in nostalgia... :D
P.S. Interesting that what EVERYONE was called is a now censored word! It's gray without the "r."

If I didn't know any better, I'd say THATS the reason why it was censored....
