    I found ff babe funny. I can't help what I do and don't find funny
    Funny is a choice!

    ff babes threads should be archived for the sole fact that they are part of EoFF. A part of EoFF, no matter how small, deserves recognition.

    No, that would be stupid. Let's encourage excessive spam, humiliation of other members and ... insulting of staff members.

    According to nik0tine's logic, every thread in every forum should be archived immediately.

    We're not going to archive a whole load of threads just to ridicule someone who's gone. Threads such as "Cids Knights are like Shinra" and "Copy paste DUH!" have been preserved because of their unintentional humour, not because we want to laugh and point at the person responsible, though some will undoubtedly do that anyway

    Other archived threads are preserved because of their significance, their hilarity or their sheer absurd creativity - but not for vindictive or scornful purposes, unless of course you count these ones.

    Yeah, I wonder who those were targetted at.

    my point is we already have enough of those. If you want ffbabe's threads archived so badly, work hard and get on staff and then covertly slip them in there.

    Or you could continually annoy your staff member of choice via IM, PM, and other forums until he finally relents to your every bidding.

    Hey, it worked for me against Bleys.

    It never did work on Unney, though. ;_;

    When Unne renamed me Fizzlebo McFlufferbunny, it took me 3 PMs of annoyance to make him change it back. :grinpink:

    Well, that's over something he did, and was therefore responsible for. Nothing could've made Unne actually do something outside of pure whim.

    I archived one of ffbabe's threads once, but it made Del sad so I moved it back a little bit later.

    There are some seriously underrated threads in the FF forums that should get archived here and there. Too bad BoB (like the Cids' Knights) was in the way. At least Matt had the sense to archive Ultima Shadow's ultimate modwhore vote him for the Ciddie zomg

    I was sad that my Sandwhich Man thread wasn't archived, but I didn't campaign about it. I didn't even PM a Mod about it.

    See, the thing is we're never going to archive threads that you demand us to archive. In fact, I'll make it a personal crusade never to archive a thread that you guys think belongs there.
