There were some all time great threads throughout that run. Shame that they're gone now
I still feel awful that happened - When the purge was done on Labor Day weekend in 2015 we were sent instructions on how to save threads and it required that they had to be stuck and that was done. However that meant that when someone went to the board they first saw 200+ stuck threads. Another mod woke up early and had not seen the memo and unstuck them and by the time I woke up they were gone.
