What´s wrong with you Xarfax?
Sometimes i really don´t get your mood changings...
As far as i know, i´m here to moderate the forum for the users and not for me. So if the users think it´s not the best way for the community to clean up the library like i do, then they should post it here. But i won´t change it only because ONE or TWO complain about it. That´s why i said "post honest", which means more like "post at all".
So could you please stop to get upset and making wrong comparisons, but let the other members have an opinion too?
Thx.

Completely Disagree With Xarfax111
I've been completely enthralled with all these threads you've revived Angelito. I think it's excellent work!
As I've said before, I came to this place in December 2003 which was long after all these discussions had occured. I've felt left out of quite a few of these wonderful discussions. Now I have the chance to read through and comment as I might have done long ago before I came to this community.
I haven't got a clue what Xarfax111 is talking about. I don't think this is spam at all! He obviously has never visited the Volcanic Wastelands, LoL! I completely disagree. This is refreshing and purely edible for the wandering mind who's seen so little of Heroes Community to begin with.
If you ask me, I think Xarfax111 might be a little frustrated. Once we so-called 'noobs' get the chance to post in these (ye-olde) threads then we will distinctly lose our 'noobness' and then he and others won't be able to call us noobs anymore. Sorry chap but this is one train I plan to take a ride on.
Thanks again Angelito!

@Conan: I think i wasn't explicit enough in my last post concearning sumarizing the "Table of contents" thread.I was thinking each thread must have a sumary(especially long threads) so that people go straight to the source when searching a specific information in a thread.
I took the liberty to make such a sumary for one of the best threads around(one of the longest too ): frank's tactic thread in ToH forum.
This is the way i see it:
Page1:
cript tactics, archery tactics,tips by frank
Page2:
townbug,topia tactics
Page3:
nebukas post with pics, scouting,cash or exp, necro tactics
Page5:
xarfaxs strategies against AI
Page7:
combo artifacts, heroes starting skills/spells
Page8:
Fighting techniques by frank,playing fortress{interessting post by lancelot}
Page9:
Add to franks fighting techiques by grendal, Dungeon tactics by lancelot
Page10:
what can you discover during opponents turn by lancelot,Xar about Tactics skill
Page11:
Tower tactic@archery tips by frank
Page12:
chit chat on fighting harpies (hags) with dendroids
Page14:
berserk, turrets damage by binabik
Page15:
Xars fighting tactics again
Page16:
Xars funny poisoning scouts tactic
Page18:
Archery tactics again by frank&csarmi,jebus tactic by frank,custom templates on ToH,hit and run fights by csarmi
If you agree with this formula, feel free to take this fragment and post it in ToC;also i'll be happy to help you for other thread if you feel that's necesary.
Hope i helped a bit
@angelito:How long will those closed threads remain in the library?

The reason why some of your links don´t work is because there is an Apostroph (´) in the name of the link. For example: Frank`s tactic thread... delete the apostroph and then they should work.
Closed threads will stay in the forum, they will not being deleted automatically. But for the fact u can´t post in them anymore, they will find their way back in the deeper end of the library the more new threads are created or old ones revived....

Angelito,
I can see where Xarfax111 is coming from with his objections, but I also don't mind the library restructuring. Following this, I would like to suggest a compromise.
*If bringing back old Threads is pushing new Threads (possibly written by newcomers to HC) onto the 2nd or 3rd page, maybe you could bring back just a few old Threads per day. That way, when these new Threads are created, they will at least be on the 1st page for a few days...giving people a chance to Post in them before they get pushed onto the 2nd page.
I know that this will delay your "clean-up process", Angelito, but it might also keep the Library "nOOb friendly" in the meantime.
*I personally enjoy seeing these old Threads because I would not have gone looking for them otherwise. They also contain great information that can help new players get an idea of on-line strategies. In addition, the fact that these Threads are cleaned of SPAM will also give newcomers a basis of comparison for their own Posts.
Example: If they only see good Posts, they will probably write good Posts themselves. If they see lots of SPAM, they will likely Post lots of SPAM.

Yes, angelito is right about the 's ... the links don't work when you use them... it took me a while to figure that one out.
Tigris; what you are proposing is that I detail every page of every thread of the library? I admit, it would be very usefull to do so, but unimaginably long! Or do you want me to do it just for the long threads? I can start doing it, but before I'm finished will be more than a month...
@Angelito: I do understand what Xarfax is saying, but I cannot say that it bothers me as I am more of a noob on this site so I don't beleive it affects me as much. However, I think that if you slowed the paste at which you cleaned, the effects might me less aggravating. For example, Xarfax stated that the noobies asking questions in a thread would end up on page 2 or 3 because of your cleaning, so if you clean less, the threads would remain on page 1. But then the cleaning would take longer. Another solution would be to edit the new threads after you clean so that all remains in proper order and the cleaned threads appear in page 2.
In any case, I like the library very much so I just wanted to add my 2 cents to help if I can.
EDIT: Dang Léo, you just beat me to it!! We must of been posting at the same time.

Well, it seems like I Posted a full 10 minutes before you, so...you are either trying to make yourself sound smarter by regurgitating my ideas or you had the same great ideas as me, but are just 10 minutes slower at expressing them.
I guess you could have been delayed by your little girl too, eh.

One thing you members can do to help Angelito - would be to bump the threads you wish to see on page one yourselves - this way Angelito can keep busy with the cleaning (and stay outta the donuts!!)
ps to Xar - yay!!! you changed your face back

Most of the threads that were moved were pretty stupid threads that didn't really benefit too many people. Sending them to the Wastelands (instead of deleting them outright) is a way to keep them alive (albeit temporarily) if there is still any use/fun to be had from them, while also serving as a way to eventually get rid of them so that the only threads that appear in the Library are those that are helpful to HOMM strategists.

Angelito does NOT deserve the donut. All he deserves is demotion. DEMOTE ANGELITO!!!!!

Trogdor, my mother always said that "if you don't have something nice to say, then don't say anything at all". You might want to follow her advice in this case, as you will find that lots of people are willing to take a stand for Angelito, especially here in the Library.
I can respect the fact that you have an opinion, but at the least, you might want to explain it to us before making statements like the one I quoted.
P.S. If this was all meant as a joke, then I am sorry for the misunderstanding, but I did not see any smileys in your Post.

QP & Table of Contents request
I would like to see Muttley get a QP for creating this awesome & very helpful list, even though it is a few months old, it is still good stuff!
Conan, can it also be added to the ToC, please?

I Disagree
I checked the link and reviewed what Muttley typed up. I like what he started. I also felt he left a great deal of information out. I found it to be rather incomplete and thus not deserving of a qp.

Just wondering, I haven't noticed any revived closed threads or any threads in the Wastelands being moved in a while. Have you finished your cleaning of the library?
