...people were under the (false) impression their work would be saved in the forum forever.

I guess this goes to show how different people "use" TW. This makes it sound like people create art forTW's sake, that they wouldn't make it otherwise. Whereas I (in my very limited artisteness) thought it was a place to share what would have been created otherwise. I see your point. I guess I never would have written limericks about farts and circumcision, or haiku about wonderbras if the Artiste forum had not inspired me to do so. And how about that Five Minute Writing Exercise? That rocked! Now I'm getting all sad and weepy!

But! Adam did give plenty of warning prior to the threads expiring, and people had plenty of chances to save their work if this was the only place it existed.

Doesn't everyone on here have a thread or two that have a special place in your heart,...? Or a specific post that you are particularly proud of that you'd really be sad to know was gone forever?

Yes. See above. But I'm just a silly, dottering, old sentimental fool.

Shit. Here comes that Oopsie message. Watch, all this typing and my post may be lost!
