You seem to be working from an outdated version of the rough. I've already made today's installment anyway.

I have, and apart from the test pilot reports for the neocaduceus upgrade and discussions regarding the vector map improvements and simons navy viper texture designs, it's empty. No wonder we didn't see each others post....... Typical, sometimes I think snail mail would be quicker..

Fickle is this forum in it's updates sometimes!

Proper mailing lists are nice. So's usenet, or possibly a small server with just a few groups…

An act which acts in reverse on forums as a new reply causes said sinking thread to bob to the top again.

So truely sinking a tread would take not replying to it, which in turn would mean not being able to take credit for sinking it. So technically you could play a thread game of FLOAT! Which would be akin to necroposting...

Thinking about this makes my head hurt.

Mod_delete maybe?
