...As saying that having the forums archived...Sucks! None of the links that people have put to other topics or forum threads work...It isn't helpful and it makes finding things far harder than it should be. Every issue/problem people have will have to be re-asked, re-posted, re-linked here and that really, really sucks! In all the FAQs there by Stumpy, the links within don't work.
Rant done.

Perhaps you need to consider the reasons why something like this is done. It wasn't done just for kicks.
I am aware of the reasons, T...It doesn't make it any less sucky or anymore helpful in finding things.

Would it be more helpful if we had to shut the forums down for good?
I'm gonna try to play mediator for a minute. :unsure:

yes the strong bolded words were strong, but, I do think Dana was just caught in the heat of the moment. She also has a point though.

As do you Z, i think that the archive works, though i think it is hard to find these things, other than that it is a nice feature. Can we agree on that? :)

I think you mean,
He has a point. The worst word that I bolded was "sucks"...The rest were just to emphasize my frustration.

A sarcastic rhetorical question is a good point? I'm having problems finding things on the old board and I had to rant/vent/Blow off steam, y'all may have heard about it. I know it had to be done to keep the forums going...I'm just saying it's nearly impossible to find anything that was linked.
