Legendary Topics
With the advent of the Legends board, where legendary threads are preserved for all time, it makes sense to have a system of nomination for further legendary topics. With the increasing possibility of the deletion of the Pigeon Lounge, too, there may actually be a topic or two in there worth preserving for all-time.
So, the Legendary Topics board exists for quick browsing of these works of art. Since you can't post in the Legends board, this topic exists for you, the user base, to nominate topics for legendary status. A Legendary Topic is a topic that's fun to read, participate in, and talk about -- usually a flame war, or something else that's ridiculous but in hindsight really funny (and at least a little shameful for all participants).
The rules:
1) Post a link to the topic here, and a concise reason why.
2) Each topic must meet approval from a decent handful of users.
3) Each nominated topic must be essentially dead and not helpful in the scope of the board.
If you wish to anti-vote a topic, you may do so, but provide a reason beyond "it makes me look bad ." For instance, if the topic isn't funny, then you can say so, but if you think it's not funny because it makes you look like a dumbass then your anti-vote won't count for much.
So, post your legendary thread nominations here. Note that Pigeon Lounge topics are valid for legendary status, as long as they're not too offensive.
If you want to remove the PL because it encourages immaturity and nastiness, why condone the new Legends forum, which so far contains some particularly immature and nasty threads?
Edit: this isn't a vote, so, not sure if it belongs here, since it's really a response to both your soliciting votes, and the creation of the forum itself. I didn't want to post in the sticky there, but it doesn't really belong here either. Move it where you like, or delete it.

If it's a bad idea, I won't object to taking it down. I could most likely save the threads and post them on ITO. You have to admit, though, that these are some pretty golden topics.

Your actions will get you warned anyway -- so I'm not trying to encourage people to be stupid jerks, because you'll still get in trouble for it. Besides, a lot of the stuff on Legends is more harmless humor; someone is just being stupid, not especially mean.
When I compiled the Legends forum, I tried to include that which I thought was nearly 100% funny. A lot of topics started well and fizzled out at then end for whatever reason, so I left those out. I'm wondering if the [8FTB] announcement is funny enough. I think it's actually a little too light to go into Legends, but I wanted the opinions of the CLIQUE and everyone else on that. I mean, I don't think it ever got less funny, but it wasn't as outrageous as some of the better stuff around here. It wasn't a flame war, either, so that might help balance out Legends a bit. What do you think?

Eh, I'm just not sure it's legendary enough. Maybe it deserves to be there for a couple months or something, not sure about a permanent spot.irons wrote:PS, I never got any opinions (CLIQUE or otherwise) about this one:
The One got fucked over because his 3D glasses version of Aleph One sucked, so we told him to get the hell out. Wrk, I more or less agree about the other topic; I just wanted a second opinion. Good thing it was from another guy in the CLIQUE.

As for the Ryoko single-handedly destroying the pfhorums: well, it was enjoyable, but for me it lost everything once someone suggested that it should be part of the legendary topics.
No truly legendary topic mentions that it should be a legendary topic.
~if I had a rocket launcher, I'd make someone~
I agree with the ruination of the "Ruination" topic through awareness of its legendariness, but the amazing reading that comes before overshadows anything else. However, I say we shouldn't post legend-awareness in a potentially legendary thread from this point forward. If someone wants to talk about that, he can do it here instead of in the thread itself.

If the PL ever does get deleted I say these two topics should be preserved.

"RyokoTK is single-handedly ruining the community" has been moved to Legends.
I'm not so sure about either of the ones logan linked to, or the 8FTB one.

Yeah, 8FTB was just a suggestion. I can live with it out of the Legends forum if you can, tampon-eater.

Shut your giant douche-hole.
Hello again, my tiny tampons. Today's subject is the wonderful Nobody Loves Me: Alan Edition. There were many laughs to be had in this thread, but I'm still scratching myself wondering if it's truly "Legendary."

I think it's legendary for sure, it may have been a bit slow at times, but it was overall very entertaining, in my opinion.
