Hey all,
I haven't posted on these forums for a while, but I thought it'd be a great idea to recall epic or funny threads.

I'll start:

Reverend Mail

A search for players to fight Shen turns into a bunch of light-hearted LoTR references.

Any Killing Ifrit thread where Madawc would explain his maths. I remember a Homam Corazza vs Armada Hauberk thread that made history.

Also that thread about Roundhouse sending pictures of his penis to *I forgot his name*, said *I forgot his name* uploaded them to his Imageshack and proceeded to make a thread about its boomerang shape on Killing Ifrit.

I miss those days (and I wish I had saved those pictures).

You know, I was planning to bump this thread a while back...

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/14293/the-post-your-favorite-thread-thread

...but having re-read it, it was like a disaster from the very beginning. >.>;; Darki posted on the first page, things went downhill, then weird things started happening (KFH trying to get the thread back on topic? Bart and Art sniping at each other? It was like an FFXIAH Twilight Zone episode lol...) ;_;

Anyhow, I considered what threads I enjoyed most over the years and realised that although there were many that had a lot of funny back-and-forth (mostly those OVER NINE PAGES ones...and yeah, maybe ones featuring Elanabelle, Stanflame, Darki, Flion, etc. all going at it) you really had to dig around to get to the fun stuff (and a lot of the intervening stuff was really vicious lol.) So there were also ones with great comic potential...like the one where Darki asks FFXIAH to help her name her son--but what positive anything could one possibly expect to come of that thread, really? :p And there are others like this one where I thought the OP was really funny, but the discussion wasn't funny at all. >.>;; Oh well.

So my personal criteria for my fave-threads were that they had to be funny or clever or at least made me smile a whole lot, where everyone contributes to it, and it stays mostly on-point (even if off-topic) and not meander too much so at least it makes for a good read without having to dig through pages. :p So in no particular order...

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/26682/roleplaying-my-char-is-looking/ (The greatest "WTF?" thread, to my memory...) :p

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/26339/ffxi-in-rl (Even if half the image-links are now broken, this one was so good!) :)

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/37894/if-you-thought-congress-cares-one-bit (Sorry Chanti, but this one ended up being the quintessential FFXIAH P&R thread for me...) ^^;;

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/27019/creepy-thread/ (How did this get in here? *clicks link* Doh...*regrets*)

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/46969/cake-lol/ (The photo links on her OP of the cupcakes are sadly all broken, but if you go the shop homepage she's still actually making cakes! So cool!) ^^

http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/31080/guy-turns-dead-cat-into-helicopter/ (FFXIAH for great science thread!) :p

Zanshin 3-hit build was pretty funny, but then the thread was moved to the flame core and deleted thereafter :(

Madawc was a good friend of mine and despite his reputation on KI he was a really good DRK in the years that followed.

Personally my favorite thread ever is the You're Banned Game.

I think that entire thread got nuked. It was my thread, and it's no longer anywhere in my history

/sad

EDIT: Yeah it's gone. Found a link to it on my old LS's website. Takes you to the forums now, not the thread. poop.
