Achaean News
MSGs and how to keep them - at least a few
Written by: Clementius, the Weaver

Addressed to: Everyone
You might want to keep a VERY few messages. You might want
to preserve them from the ravages of time, decay, and
destruction at the hands of my team, known as -
Message Unweaving Anonymous Horrendously Aggressive Helper Agents.
But how?
You may now preserve messages from my team, so:
MSG PRESERVE 3 (or whatever the message number may be).
Once preserved, a message will not be dragged off into
a Weaver's perdition, unravelling all the way. No, a preserved
will continue, even if it is more than a couple of Achaean
years old.
You will see various new ways to manipulate messages that
have been preserved if you simply chant the power word: MSG.
In the meantime, know that I will be unleashing my team soon,
though no earlier than three Achaean months hence. Beware!
And be ready please.
As for precisely what that means - it means that older
messages - messages at least 30 Achaean months old -
will be candidates for destruction by the team. The
sorts of messages handled by MSG DELETE DECAYS will
be prime candidates as well.
Penned by my hand on the 9th of Phaestian, in the year 445 AF.
