This thread is closing in on 30,000 posts.

I feel like we should have some kind of party or ceremony. Maybe a contest to decide who gets to mark the incredible milestone.

Can the mods lock the thread automatically at 29,999?

Or maybe 20 before that and then we can have a start gun for a mad rush to all post something and hope that it hits th 30,000.

This thread has touched so many lives, we must acknowledge this special moment.

And I think it is only fitting that a statue of the creator of the thread, be erected at the MCG and also another at the new home base,  which will thereby encapsulate his two sporting loves.

Gold.

Well played Red.

Who moved the thread off the football board?

Clearly wants the thread not to discuss football and to effectively whither and die.

 

Must have a terrible culture at Adelaide!

"While Steven May’s dig at Collingwood has raised eyebrows, he wasn’t the only one over the weekend to take a shot at the premiers.

Speaking after winning the club’s best and fairest on Saturday night, Adelaide skipper Jordan Dawson revealed he messaged teammates during the grand final to tell them the Crows were better than Collingwood and Brisbane."

I think it was your pride-based call to erect a stature in your honour (2 in fact!) that did it Red. Andy and the Mods saw "red" at your request and decided to banish you.

Their loss, it is the biggest, most posted, most read, longest lasting and best thread ever on DL, never causing a problem either and yet for some reason there is this desire to end it.

Football is discussed, yet it is put on a general discussion board.

I agree with you Red. Moving this thread is [censored]!

Demonland has become unfathomable of late!

Forget the culture of the MFC, maybe we need to discuss the culture of Demonland.

Demonland seems to have stalled! I have a fair idea why, but I'm afraid to say for fear of being banned!

Opening Demonland is like buying a packet of cigarettes.  Graphic warnings front and back.

I'm happy if it dissuades people from smoking, but saddened at what it and other actions are doing to Demonland. 

@Redleg, it's time for some action to get this thread put back on the main board. It doesn't deserve to die in obscurity way out here (it doesn't deserve to die at all!) - but it surely will unless something is done.

I think we all need to post on every thread in the Football and Trade threads demanding this great thread be restored to the football thread, it’s rightful home.

Post some footy content every time too, like this for example, I think Tracc should play forward for parts of the game. Clearly it is therefore a footy thread not a general one.

hey presto ...
