| | | Would like a way to petition reopening old threads.
I am not talking about threads shut down for getting too hot. Sometimes I see some great stuff that (perhaps due to timing) have been closed. My (stupid suggestion  ) a way to appeal to Admins. and Mods. to reopen interesting threads that perhaps have only a few posts on them. (Again this would not apply to threads shut down for getting "overheated") just the ones that had perhaps bad timing or what-not in terms of generating interest. (This would be a case by case issue of course) Thank you.

Cool.  Thanks Chris.
