    Lightbulb List of past seminal threads?

    What about having a sticky thread with a list of links to the most interesting past threads of this community ? I am a rather recent member, but some of the "old timers" could and sometimes do excavate gold.
    Just a thought, so this information is not lost forever.
    I know one could search the forum, but most of the time, I find I am not really searching for anything in particular, but would enjoy having a source of interesting reading at hand.

    There isn’t one, and likely no one will maintain one. So I offer this workaround hack:

    You can search the forum by number of replies. Do this and ignore all of the “local meetup” and “video” threads. Usually anything gets talked about to death in a single thread and the number of replies is a good indicator.

    No one needs to maintain that, I think. The old timers could just post a few links indicating the main topic the thread is about. I know One Click posted a few a while ago about wintercamping with posts by Cannibal.
    This could be like the "Awesome pictures" thread.

    Tell ya what, you get it started and if it generates enough interest, I will make it a sticky in the General area.

    Please go ahead and start a new thread in general. I am going to close this thread.
