PS. Looking for a blogger template: 3 columns, dark, something on the gothic vampire side, not very intricate but elegant. If anyone knows of a template like the above PM me. Thanks.

Don;t worry. All you've lost is a few thousand variances on the theme" Stay on topic" and "Don't be naughty", and my own person favourite "thread merged"
Zackly - the important peoples' posts are still there. :td:
:shock:

Forums are interesting and if you don't agree, you can fuck off.

If Josh T had any respect for other life forms then why is there no obvious sign up saying that the RD.net forum is closed?
It seems that people are still joining up from the new usernames appearing in the “newest members”. :think:

They have to do that to allow people to post on the Front Page. They should still add some sort of a notice though.

But there will indeed be debate and discussion, and I am certain that we can think our way to an optimal future...
Might it be possible to start a subsection for mocking and destroying fundies who post elsewhere? Locked to members only, so it wouldn't attract board wars, that is. That way we'd have an outlet for the urge to explain exactly what's wrong with those people without getting into the endless trollish engagements.

This must be God's punishment (ok, how many people have already said something like that?)
