"Where is Plastic?"

I know the answer to the question posed.  God rest his soul !!

I have only started this thread to see If you will (can be bothered) to use the "search bar"....... to seek out this thread.

There is nothing especially "special" about this thread....although it does has significance for me.

I'm wondering if we "the current masses" can get it to 'appear' as an "active" thread on the home page.......if we each add to it?

Will "multiple replies" on that thread, allow it to be "current" on our "currently-curated-by-3rd parties" home page in this forum?

This is citizen science!

I would be grateful to any of you who can add ANY comment this VERY old thread mentioned (ie the title of this thread)....that you will only be able to access if you use the "search bar" to connect into it.

  • Thank you for trying mrs snooks and o&u....I'm not surprised that it hasn't worked.  Everything old is hidden now and deemed unworthy of a place at the "home page."

    It is a form of "book burning" and censorship to my mind.

    I do appreciate that the majority of "current/remaining" folk here simply don't mind.  There is little oxygen for dissention or difference here now.....perhaps.  Most of the interesting oddballs have flown....i wonder why?

    Hi Number, I do enjoy reading your posts but find this one not to my liking. Every forum or system has to have someway of managing the posts on it, I am not sure I really understand what the problem is here? I understand the issues around posts disappearing or held under moderation and the clunkiness of the system but not sure I get this point?

    This point I definitely did not like, maybe I am misunderstanding it but it reads to me that the majority of the remaining community are somehow lesser or uninteresting in your eyes? Have i got it wrong?

    It is very sad to see people leave I agree but I dont think criticising those that are here is a good way especially considering a lot of people here are autistic.

    Maybe I have misunderstood your point? I hope I have,....
