Do not post in dead topics*. This creates work for me.
Do not hold conversations in dead topics if someone else does. This creates a lot more work for me.
Do not be surprised if I slap you for either in future. I don't like needless work.

*A dead topic is any topic which has not been posted in for a week or more.

Ah. Someone's getting lazy...

What do you think you're paid for! Sheesh...

Heh - so what, exactly, causes extra work?

It takes takes at least thirty seconds to delete a post. That means it takes thirty seconds to drop an old topic back where it belongs if somebody posts in it.

If ten or fifteen people post in it, it takes a hell of a lot longer.

I don't think topics that are a week old are dead. A month or two, yes, but not a week.

The correct answer to this topic would be to wait two weeks and then post an acknowledgement. You all fail.

Av, I think you should start posting in every topic over a month old. Just to piss him off.

Nah, you see there's no risk when I do it. I just make him angry, and he can't vent it anywhere, I'm immune to SA-isms. However, every time one of you mortal beings do such feats, you get the added thrill of tempting fate - to see just how far you can push him. As they say, "no risk, no gain."

You know, we could even make a lottery-like thing. Just place bets on how many posts someone can make before they push the Angel over the edge. Posted Image

I've taken ones from the very beginning of TT. And that was funny! Some of those old topics are good to talk about! I'd rather talk about them, than music videos.

That is, if you can keep up with SA's KarmaClub.

There hasn't been much diggin' here, but did you see what happened on Ambrosia Banter yesterday? Some unregistered user named "TopicDigger" brought 3 of the oldest topics on the forum up with replys saying "Hehe, I just revived the oldest topic on this forum! Go me!" All the topics were deleted, of course, but I hope that guy gets banned before he attacks the other forums...

Dude! That's great! Then set fire to your pants!

Actually, I'm lying - if you kill yourself it isn't my fault, ok?

And just how many posts has SA deleted?

These flames are uncomfortable. Can I put them out now so I still have some use of my limbs?
