'member, we moved this already...from the in-character area? And that was okay, right? That was it, no more moving, honest.
Okay... Lemme 'splain... <going into mom-mode> (note...that's mom-mode, NOT mod-mode)
A piece of this thread will get split off. It will be the beginning pages. We're talking about 200, 300, or 400 pages. That can be up to you guys, BUT, it would make sense to go with more pages so we don't have to do this again for a while. That is what is archived.
That archived bit will be called something like Son of Daniel, ma belle, The Archive. IT WILL LIVE IN THIS FORUM. This is the part that will be locked, won't be posted in anymore. It will be nice and shiny and available for continued reading, but not for continued posting.
THIS THREAD, where we are now, WILL STAY JUST WHERE IT IS. It will stay open. It will keep the same name. We will still be able to post in it. No one will move it. No one will lock it. It will just have fewer messages in it...except that we'll keep posting to it...and it'll grow into a h-u-g-e and g-i-g-a-n-t-i-c thread again. Then we'll talk have fond memories of this conversation as we talk about Son of Daniel, ma belle, The Archive 2...

Does that make sense?
