If it's archived, can I still get what I need to do the "Best of" thread?

If this keeps up, we're going to have to archive this.
Is that a requirement? And if so, how long before this has to happen?

I'ld say at 500-ish.

Since we've stoped talking about Daniel, how do ya'll feel about moving this to Off the Cuff?

This is Captain Underpants guys

Book Description:
When we last saw George and Harold, they were about to take their pet pterodactyl Crackers back to the Cretaceous period. But things didn't work out quite as they had hoped. They've entered an absurd alternate reality where teachers are nice, kids are allowed to read banned books, and the cafeteria food doesn't smell like dirty diapers. Even worse, they've discovered alternate versions of themselves--Evil George and Evil Harold--who plan to unleash some preposterous plans on Piqua, Ohio. Now it's up to George and Harold to defeat the evil twins and THEIR superhero, Captain Blunderpants!

From School Library Journal
Grade 2-5–In their eighth epic adventure, George and Harold use the Purple Potty to travel to an alternate universe where teachers care, the library has books, and kids eat at a five-star gourmet cafeteria. Unfortunately they also encounter Evil George and Evil Harold, who transform good Mr. Krupp into Captain Blunderpants. The evil duo also steal the boys' pets, Crackers and Sulu, and hitch a ride back to George and Harold's world. They might destroy that world with Evil Sulu, the world's biggest baddest bionic hamster, but are thwarted by the arthritic avengers Boxer Boy and Great-Granny Girdle and their geezer power. Part novel, part comic book, and part Flip-o-rama™ (add your own sound effects), this newest adventure will not disappoint the legions of Captain Underpants fans. The cartoon pictures almost tell the story, making it a boon for struggling readers. Maybe kids, like Pilkey, will be inspired to write their own comics, invent their own superheroes, poke fun at the absurdities they see, and not worry about a few (in Pilkey's case, deliberately) misspelled words. Libraries with the previous books will want to add this one.–Mary Jean Smith, Southside Elementary School, Lebanon, TN

Archiving is what we do to really long threads. You split off the bulk of the pages and turn them into their own thread, which gets locked. That way you don't get 2000 page threads.

But that makes me sad.

I'll still be able to copy and paste then?

I think it's a good idea to move it, so that the "Best of" thread can be done more easily. Sifting through all these pages is a bitch.

Do you mean to move it or to archive it?
