Can this thread be archived?
 

Can Otto's Meta other forum argument be archived? I think it's a classic.

mention that archiving stops posts. rolleyes smilie showing inherent superiority of moderator over forum posters


post that thread is archived so that user knows the mod is working around the clock for his every whim

arbitrarily closes thread as method of getting in last word and further show of power

thinks better of it

leaves thread open

obligatory mod warning about potential thread ugliness and closure

Snide remark about haughtiness of mod's harsh reaction to poster's reasonable suggestion.

Token insincere "thank you".

Thought to self that one had also considered that particular thread was well-worthy of archiving but rapid second thoughts had involved the worry that this would bring it to a premature end.

Third thoughts that a thread discussing a Meta Thread surely would itself be a Meta-Meta Thread or, perhaps, Meta²
