It might be more accurately compared to a whoopie cushion here; being somewhere in between.
Anyway, who thinks it's time for Part 2? It was hinted at, and DF2010 brings back ye olde HFS in a way... should be perfect.
A part 2 would be nice.
Excepting the hairballs and fleas.
Toady really aught to stop the forum from letting you bump past a certain time frame.
Bumping for the point of saying 'look, I bumped something' is generally frowned upon.
I would call that more a "Hey, Toady, here's a suggestion, plus why examples, in the same post with very few letters."
I'm trying to be nice to the server here. If you had to store that much data, you'd appreciate the help as well.
Right, but... there's a suggestions forum for suggestions. Bumping a really old topic to say that people shouldn't be able to bump really old topics seems counter-intuitive, even if it's supposed to serve as an example. Why not just post the idea elsewhere without bringing another thread into it? It's not really an issue that necessitates examples; everyone will know what you mean.
Hell, you could just frigging PM him.
And yet it gets the message across without annoying anyone.
In Soviet Russia, environment destroys you!
Germany learned this the hard way.
But it could be worse, at least it was one dwarf against the world that got bumped, the most awesome hermit challenge ever.
I always imagine dwarves to train as if fighting pretend monsters. "It's a carp, use your sword!" "Shwish! Shwoosh! It's dead!" "Oh no, it's a giant cave spider! Noo, it's got me! Kill it with your axe!" "Swoosh, I cut off its head!"
UNDEAD ELEPHANTS.HERDS OF THEM.EVEN IN DEATH I STILL GRAZE.
If you have something intelligent to say, you can help keep a thread at the top. Bumping and necro'ing threads just pisses people off. Let nature take its course. That is all. Have fun.
