And if it was I probably ignored it like I usually do when it comes to Monty Python.

Why don't you like Monty Python! It's hilarious!

Post #146 featured a Monty Python clip. Since we are retreading territory in this dead ol thing, how about we repeat every post from #288 on down to #1 so that the beginning and end of the thread are mirrors of each other. Like a forum palindrome! I'll take #288 below...

Post#288

That's exactly why I didn't bother with Google translation. Machine translation from German to English always seems to come out bad. I'd assume it would be just as bad reversed.

German was my first language. I guess you're implying that I am a poor writer.

I'm gonna tell. Maybe me whining will close this thread."

You might want to avoid red and darkred text. Those are reserved for moderators.


I can't believe this thread is still here.

Do the Hive threads get closed after a certain number of posts, or is it usually by request (of the OP or the Hivers...)?

If it's a certain number of posts, we need to pick up the pace!

If it's by request, maybe [MENTION=53678]Wednesday Boy[/MENTION] should post last and ask the moderators to close it...thus preserving his legacy and prophecy...

 

[jonesy]

I don't think there's a limit. They used to close them at the 1000 mark, but not anymore. If there is a limit it's a lot lot bigger.

If it's by request, maybe <!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: dbtech_usertag_mention -->@Wednesday Boy <!-- END TEMPLATE: dbtech_usertag_mention -->should post last and ask the moderators to close it...thus preserving his legacy and prophecy...

You made the same request in post 310 and I tried in post 312 and look how well that worked!!

Well you gotta try harder!!!

Seriously though, if you made a post something like this: "I think this thread has run it's course...AND I'M THE THREADKILLER!" - then report it asking it to be closed, they'll probably accomodate.

Otherwise, I doubt they're even reading this thread - unless someone reports a post for being offensive, etc.



P.S.: and I'm sure everyone who's been participating in this thread will refrain from posting after you do, and not try to sneak in as the threadkiller before it's closed...

Honestly I haven't looked at this thread since around post 315. Do people really want it closed? It seems like someone must enjoy posting and I don't want to ruin their fun.
