What happened to the undying thread? I go away for awhile, I come back, and it's gone. <sniff sniff> Could it really have passed away?

The father of said thread tried to kill it forever, but the people have spoken.

I conrent that the lock on the bottom of this page means that it did die.

And no one noticed.
As others said, it was resurrected (or Phoenixed or whatever you want to call it) in a newer "Return Of The Son Of <thread name>." The body is dead but the spirit lives. Kinda like a zombie.

Most threads that get locked around here don't get to rise again three minutes later.
They mutate. Changeling threads roam the dark recesses of AW, shapechanging monsters waiting to devour unsuspecting n00bs.
Yeah. Kinda like that.
