Must admit I was a bit surprised to see the Beaver Blower thread yesterday, but I think it was in response to something on the General Board - someone obviously went trawling for it and found the WRONG one! I didnt actually delete the original thread, just assumed that it had committed suicide by throwing itself off page 15! And I totally agree with Jess - there is a world of difference between reviving a thread which contains useful info, and one which is ASKING for look-ups. Perhaps if we all remember, when nudging old threads, to put something like 'Nudged for Tilly Bud - old thread.' Olde Crone

I cannot see what harm leaving a nudge with ANYthing on it does really, Have we yet decided what the capasity for 'number of replies on a thread' is before it spontaniously combusts......? LoL Jess x

Don't you dare, Joy! :-) It's bad enough having solid wadges of about 8 tips threads all being nudged together and crowding new requests off page 1. Moderation in all things.

Lorraine - if you put in anything, be it a full stop or the word nudge it is not annomous. Nobody minds things being resurrected for a reason.

I agree - nothing wrong with being brought forward for a good reason. Abbess - I wouldn't dream of it........ but it's just nice to know they are still here! :-) Joy
