[F] Rename TOR

Post by energizerspark »

It's probably kind of trivial, but I think we should remove the "Revived!" from the Topic of Randomness. Everyone calls it the Topic of Randomness anyway.

I've always thought that, too. Most members here won't even know why it's revived. :XD:

Oh, yes. :XD: I mean, it's existing since 2009.
(By the way why is it "revived"? :o What happened to the "Topic of Randomness"?)

I read through the old topics. I think it was locked because it was deemed as spam or something.

@Kroki
After I read your post, I looked on the creepy smile of your avatar. This scared the hell out of me.

@Energizerman
I read something about excessive spamming earlier but I didn't know it was connected to the ToR.

Gosh. It's so old, now, that it won't even appear in searches. I can't find it. :XD:

But it was basically made by someone who's now either banned or doesn't come here anymore. It wasn't a sticky topic, but, when Unas closed it for spam, he brought it back by popular demand.

Actually, it's probably been deleted a long time ago - you know, what happens with stuff moved to the archives, deleted after a while to free up server space ;-)

But yeah, at some point the original topic degenerated into complete spam (and possibly flame wars as well, I don't remember exactly), so we closed it off.
But then people complained that it was the most useful topic of the whole forums or something, so... :lol:

Oh no, why did this have to be brought up again?! :XD:
It seems like every six months or so, the mods of General Chat change the title of the Topic of Randomness and back again, with our mini 'competition' of sorts ending up with no change at all... I think the last time it happened was when Meph wanted to add a prefix to the thread. :XD:

Well, this topic's pretty much served its purpose, so I'm locking it.
