Call it a “Hall of Honor” to remember those that have left us and I am for it.

A place to honor/remember people like Ted, JimB, and many others that have contributions that go beyond the cards themselves.

I'm not a t206 collector, but Ted's posts on that subject are truly something to behold. Maybe something to highlight noteworthy threads somewhere on the forum would suffice.

Pros: It will give us something new to argue about.

Cons: Some would argue that we have enough as it is.

Criteria would be an exciting element. Someone will need to develop a WAR calculator for posters. Longevity will need to be a factor. But we don't just want accumulators who are posting drivel just to artificially drive up their post counts. Peak years and iconic posts/threads should be a key element.

Maybe it's not as crazy as it sounds?

This hasn't been updated since I had hair on my head, so it's been there a long-time...7th icon from left to right, in the row of icons on each page, towards the top.
Some of Ted's threads are there but just haven't been updated in 13? yrs....

PED testing would be required. The rumor is Ted used coffee to post after 8 pm.

I believe Archive is already in the process of suing himself.

I voted no on the HOF but having an archive of seminal works from members like Teds T206 threads, or Rhetts Zeenut posts for example would be a huge plus. Currently one has to google search by subject and add Net54 to the end to find posts like that.

There is so much valuable information here that members have contributed to over the years that it would be a shame to lose. We could take it one step further and ask many of these long time members to contribute their knowledge where they can. For example, I would love to see Tbobs theory on Orange E94s and other aspects of the set.

Think of it not as a HOF but a Hall of Archives. More like the Imperial Library of Constantinople.
