Rezzing threads can be more useful as it makes less threads and less clutter, I see a trend in internet message boards that prefer not to rezz bbut I am all for rezzing instead of having multiple threads on the SAME THING.

Rezzing threads ultimately safe in bandwidth...

just my 0.02 in your preferred currency.

This tread is doomed to be resurected every month for the next 50 years.

I say we give up with the rezzing and simply reclaim them.

Rezzing is fine, AS long you have something usefull to add to it and not like:


"Linky?"


or stuff like that..

What does that have to do with ressurecting threads?

It saves making a new thread asking for the same thing.

I think that just putting "Sorry to REZ a dead thread but.... Linky?" would be sufficient.

In my opinion having new threads that restate something said already in the past is in most cases preferable to having people trying to figure out why the hell people in a thread are talking about features that were long ago implimented and what not. That being said, for some threads, like map threads that the author hasn't updated after they said they would, and other similar things there is really nothing you can do but res them to effectively figure out what is going on.

The problem with rezzing a discussion thread is that it is confusing... people probably expressed opinions in that thread that have since changed... facts that are now obsolete are presented. It confuses people new to the community, and it makes people explain eveything that has changed, causing frustration and wasted time.

Rezzing feature threads is less bothersome... asking for an update to a map, for example.

This IS ota. The Evolva models are included (Get 5.6, it pwns), but EXACT SAME STATS. If it doesn't 'feel' OTA enough for you, go back to the classic.

I love it when people act stupid and I can prove them wrong.
