Please re-open the Godzala thread. The agreement is 100 pages - not 100 posts. I don't see other threads being locked after 100 posts.Is it Godzala discrimination or did you not know the agreement? Either way - can you just re-open it. Thanks. EDIT: And delete this thread after. Thanks. IP: Logged |

I think it's because there are other Godzala pages that haven't reached 100 pages yet. Those ones have to finish before new ones are initiated.IP: Logged |

They've been locked. As far as I know, it was the only Godzala thread open.Anyway - problem solved - we can have multiple threads open as long as we don't title them "Godzala". Brilliant. Discrimination? No such! IP: Logged |

In all fairness, the post counts are there on the boards, it's automated.Take that sense of fairness away and I just don't see other threads locked after 100 posts or because a handful don't like them or because there's multiple subjects on the boards. IP: Logged |

scale a fish sounds so much better. but there really is only one way to scale a fish. so it really doesn't work. come to think of it, seem only one way to skin a cat too, if you were doing it in a logical manner.IP: Logged |

who would kill a poor bird with a stone? maybe some mean kid i guess.why is a bird in the hand better than a bird in the bush? seems like in the bush it would be less likely to bite or poop on a person. IP: Logged |

CPN, that one phrase is a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, meaning that what you already have is more valuable than what you'd have to spend energy on obtaining...or even more simply, "Something is better than nothing."IP: Logged |
