Not Darcy... But basically, when the software for the Forums was upgraded, the links were broken... So we manually edit some as we find them but there doesn't seem to be an automated solution right now.

The web crawlers from the various search engines (ie, Google and such) have indexed a lot, so if you are in a post that has a broken link, try doing a Google search with key words from the post and you'll usually be able to find the original post pretty quickly

That’s a good workaround, thank you for the tip 🙂

Darcy Most of the forum links lead to invalid URLs now. 😲 (Is there a way we can still read them?)

moriond explains the origin of the Hyperbole and a Half "Buy All The Bags" meme here and here. (Nominated by GoStanford)

When dasher asked about the difference between 1000d Cordura and 1050d ballistic nylon, Tom (Bihn) answered.

And then Parapack joined our fabric line-up and tpnl provided a wealth of information on the pros and cons of Parapack vs 1050d ballistic vs Cordura.

Can anyone please explain what is up with the Larabars? moriond has the answer: "Post#54 of the Double Organizer Pouch thread references the old post#56. Laerabars figured prominently in early reviews of the (original) Buzz, Brain Bag, and Super Ego by forum member @Zephyrnoid at the Imagometrics web site." Whoa!

maverick demonstrates some of the many carrying possibilities of the Synapse 19 in three videos:
