Here is the start of a new thread.

The task is easy, take a look back at the archives and post any interesting or relevant posts or threads that may have come up on the day the current day in history.

Hopefully others will show the initiative to do this as well, especially if you find an interesting thread!

Maybe we'll learn some things, maybe we won't but at the very least this should be interesting.

*Note* Some of this information may not be relevant any more, while others may echo the very same arguments that are brought up now.

Here we go.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Not all of these in gems, in fact today seemed a little think 2001 and prior.
Maybe some time I should look at including stuff from the current board?

hah, i'm looking forward to this thread. so many (or all) discussions happen over and over again throughout the years.

Try something from later on in the next incarnation of the gdb... say... 2k5ish.

The problem I'm having with the current GDB is trying to find posts with just the matching date.

In this gem, one of our dear players comes up with an idea... "woah I would like to emote what my char is doing while hiding and then I got to thinking"
Before hemote, this poster had it going on! (The response is quite good as well!)
