Hey Taverners!

I will be creating a thread/archive of memorable threads primarily from the Tavern, Support and Suggestions, and Popular Media. I will not be accepting politically or religiously charged or controversial threads from WEPR because those discussion never die and aren't very Armor Gamesy. All other sections will be considered, except for AMW, which will have its own memorable thread archive.

Here are a few criteria for selection:
- Must not be active
- Must not be exclusive
- Must not be your own
- Must be memorable

The thread will be created at a later date. It doesn't have a name yet, so feel free to suggest names. Also, please link to the thread(s) you are nominating.

Trying to think of two threads; they were about math and science. I think they got up to 30+ pages each and were in the tavern, both made last year.

There are several incarnations of those threads. These two are the largest.

Does anyone remember the thread about the pink Nitrome armatar a few months back? From what I can remember, it was fairly large and may have been long ago enough to be considered, though I can't seem to find it. I think it was in the Newcomer subforum...


It was actually in Support and Suggestions. Here it is.

Hey, it's been almost two years and after all that hullabaloo about AG3 and the nebulous nature of things that never seemed to have materialized, I'm going to try to make this a thing some time this week. Please suggest any new threads or whatever.

Like amoebae, but nobody ever talks about those.

Won't be surprised if the only things noteworthy from the last two years end up being metathreads.

This almost makes me want to bring back that one thread about users that left.

Almost tho.

If you haven't noticed, all of fst6's threads but "You're banned" are gone.


WHY has this happened

@MattEmAngel What Salvidian says is correct. It can't be your own thread, but since he vouched for it, everything is okay.

@fst6 I don't know.

It should generally be the weirder more characteristic threads that make this list. If it's something that can be recreated multiple times (like we need an edit button or where did all the activity go?), it probably doesn't qualify unless there was something truly exceptional about it.
Current list of threads:

So long, and thanks for all the lulz (Cormyn's Trolling of AG)
And the Oscar for "Best Portrayal of a Disgruntled Employee goes to ..." (also: We love our users)

Show your face to AG
Count to 100

Not sure if these should be included. Some of these are old and probably less relevant to the way the community was:
(Nostalgia) Was AG better before?

And so we lost another... To the jest.
