I am afraid that I have to ask, WHO this thread (#1) threatened, to the point that it is now hidden.

Who wants the info on the first thread out of site?

No, not Mr. Robinson, but rather the unknown (to me) names, who kept complaining.

Here is the reason for locking the thread and moving it to chat (if you go to the old thread, you get this:)

Locked on 01/26/2004 12:22:49 PM PST by Sidebar Moderator, reason:
The size of this thread is causing FR to slow down whenever it is accessed. It is going to be locked and moved to the chat/general interest forum. If anyone wants to post a 'Part 2' thread, go ahead, but post it to chat. Thank You

Technical reason is hogwash IMO. The database isn't loading thousands of pages of that thread per view. Even refreshing the DB index is trivial at 15 thousand records. If the number of posts was 15 million, I might buy it.

Shrug, the reality is too many whiners didn't like the thread for various reason so the Admin succumbed.

Somebody under the moniker of mercy (who obviously had none,lol) was griping. It was spooky to see the grey lock down bar across the top of the thread...a twinge of panic hit here as I wondered what was 'incoming' aside from the snow.

I still don't think it bodes well... it seems they had to free up the news section for upcoming events.

You can blame me. Third to last post and last one who busted it. This is a chat thread and an attempt to have a private little cubby hole within FR. It sucks and it is not helping this site. If y'all are so GD exclusinve .... go start your own website.

Question is Mama, who were they to prevail?

There were complaints????

Sheesh. I share your curiosity.

BTW, do you live in the STRIP?

Dad's in Cottonwood. I went to NAU 1965-69. Worked at the Grand Canyon one sumer and Oak Creek road construction flagging another.
