I'd be a shame to lose everything. There are a few threads in there that can belong in other categories (like the pixel trivia thread that got moved). Even if some of these threads are old or weren't that active, putting them in a category where they will be more visible would be good I think. I'm most certainly missing some.

These could be pinned threads in Introductions:

I'd suggest salvaging "Poorly describe a video game..."

Probably to "General Gaming" 👌
It seems it’s already in general gaming. Probably was moved before I woke up.

Moved almost all 👍
Wasn’t sure where to place documentary so I left it as is
You are free to suggest re-purposing some threads, or create similar ones but make them gaming related
I’m also doing my part and trying to find any lost threads, im moving each as I find them and when im available.
 
Perhaps the AMAs could be like a sub forum introductions? They are pretty much just more extensive and detailed ways to get to know your fellow users.​
That's an idea I can get behind!
 
Saying I'm done with something when I'm unsure is a bad habit of mine I guess.::dkfacepalm Sorry.
Some might be a stretch but I'd rather list them and have them declined than not list them and not know whether they may have been accepted.

No need to apologize, these are always welcome, and I’m always happy to help any way I can. I’ll give these a look, and get back at you later. Also, that’s a fantastic mentality. Healthy too. Good on you. 👍
