    Hi guys,


    Unfortunately issues have started arising due to the size of certain threads. It's creating trouble with the database.

    Thus, unfortunately, the Lair as it exists days are numbered. We'll have to open a new thread in the near future and lock the existing Lair.


    Thanks

    ( Screw that, we all know the day walkers found the Lair so we need a new home. Still, good opportunity to do the place up. for one, I want a new throne for one, Lysander needs a kennel big enough to keep a dead zombie in and we need creakier doors.

    Feel free to ask for new furniture, features etc here and I'll do my best to get them for the new Lair when we find a cave suitable enough for us!)

    But...but.....but.....awwwww dammit :(

    That's gonna be weird :(

    It's like getting kicked out of your house to make way for a new motorway. They give you another house, and it might be lovely, but it's not the same :(

    New Lair? :O Couldn't be called the Lair though surely?

    Should call it something cool and cutting edge... Like The Phallis, or something along those lines

    I genuinely don't have a date. I thought it was important to let you know as soon as I did though.

    You can have floor cushions but how many get eaten by Lyssie and Noxcat aren't up to me!

    Blankies are fine. I guess I will have to break it to Ner when he gets back.

    Purlease leave the lair as it is but don't have a tacky name like the
    Lair 2

    Call it Dungeon of the Departed or something.

    I am reasonably sure no thread will ever be allowed to get to the size the Lair has.

    I can change the name of a thread in the Noc anytime. It is something to think about.

    If at all possible I will lock the Lair for posterity.

    Not unless they get to be as vast and impressive as The Lair.

    The database encounters problems when a thread has too many posts in it, can't handle the pressure.

    Can we be proactive and put a date on it ourselves?


    Also could we change the name of the old Lair to 'The Lair(old)' and just have the new one as 'The Lair'? Just for continuity.


    And we all know the real reason, it's cos Randy has put so many questionable stains all over the place, there's nowhere to sit anymore

    It's not about SATC, it's about something that's too good to be true :( It was the first example that came to my head.

    Probably cause Tom wanted to call the place The Phallis....

    I know it's childish, but if I could, I would like to wait until Nerin gets back. I feel he should start the new one.

    If I get some best before date I'll decide and do it myself.
