Some good thread suggestions are being offered here. Just a suggestion: when posting a link, you can make it easier on the moderator who's collecting them by inserting the title like this: Victor Laxman <- - - and that one is definitely a classic, IMO.

Now, another oldie, but goodie:
The storyline, or lack thereof, has been debated many times over the years, but this thread appears to be one of the first attempts (May 2006). Since then, many only repeat or even parrot statements and positions originally made in this thread initiated by Shields: Make a real story this time.

Companion threads: MAKE A REAL STORY THIS TIME - THE SAGA CONTINUES - one page thread started when the first one was locked for becoming too heated. The original thread was then unlocked with a request by Greydragon to stay on topic and stop calling people idiots. When it was locked again, an attempt was made to restart the discussion in Concerning the "Make a real story this time" threa.

All the hope and anticipation culminated in that one exciting first post. It glued me (and others, I'm sure) to my computer, constantly refreshing and waiting for news, until Uru came online again.

I second this for the same reason. (Not my intention at all to be self-indulgent here! )

This topic had endless excitement in it when it was first created, excitement I had not felt throughout the Uru Community for a long time, especially after a year and a half of everything being static...

The topic had some good moments, and a few bad moments here and there (some of which got deleted), but it is still a topic I won't be forgetting anytime soon.

I remember refreshing my browser so many times that day...

I'm preparing to start one thread - gathering courage since it's quite a challenge for my English as a foreign language

I suggest this new thread: Ki to text?

I think this offers those with typing and reading challenges another way to handle things.

Thanks for these threads.

Do we have a section or thread for those will disabilities?

Rand's first and only post on this forum was to compliment the fine documentary work being discussed in this thread:
The Story of The Great Tree Continues - Episode 1 Released!

Just for the curious, a direct link to Rand's post: Wohba!

The Official Open Source Uru Cyan Internal Memo Thread
Another vid-inspired narrative, detailing the shocking truths about operations at Cyan. Also the Intern Corral, and whiteboards. It's a pity it fell by the wayside.

Yes, I second that.
