    Oh, I could create some havoc, all right -- if I were still an admin -- but I disagree too much with the way this place is run present-day, so that ain't gonna happen. So it's just a matter of making some random thread -- just like all kinds of people do every day here -- and getting the right people to spam the hell out of it to get the ball rolling.

    In other words, one person being in a silly and fun mood isn't enough. You need at least 2, and they have to feed off of each other.

    Last good one I had was with Unne, and we kept banning each other. Good times. Presently, the staffer I see eye-to-eye with the most is Matt, and that's because we're both cantankerous grouches. Not the best recipe for a happy-fun thread, unless it's at the expense of a few key n00bs whom I think I'd be able to make leave.

    I said we're long overdue for one, I'm not suggesting we unrandomly start one right now. >=(

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    Yeah, it's got to be completely random. Plus, you absolutely can't do one without staff cooperation...and almost all of my likely spamming partners are now off of staff.

    Hardcore people don't make threads. They wait for others to make them then hijack them.

    That was a nice attempt by you and Baloki, and serves to illustrate my point that YOU CAN'T ****ING FORCE IT, ***HOLE.

    Maybe you should believe me next time. And every time after that.

    Wait, did you just say you want to **** force my ***hole? Mr. Maynard! I'm just not that kind of boy!

    PS: That wasn't an attempt. That was Baloki on Pepsi, and I always like to fuel the flames of that.

    I thought that was the day I joined that happened...

    Edit: Oh yeah, the archives I think are pritty comprehensive, maybe missing a few worthy threads but who's perfect nowadays?

    Heh, if you do have any database backups, reading a topic out of them is quite easy...in fact, knowing the topic ID, a little 1KB PHP script would probably do quite nicely.
