Ok for all you people that seem to skip this everytime it has been said. Flab(the person that has put his time and money into these forums) said that there will be no more bash pit.  Don't agree? Well then making topics about it is not gonna help, contacting people and getting down the percent of people that want it back and sending it to Flab might help. Though I doubt if anything will come up, I have spoken with him before about the bash pit.

Yes, and bashing is pointless and makes you seem ignorant.  The less we see of it the better.  Just go recruit people to bash with you on that forum, as long as it's not here. :)

The bash pit is a figurative name.

Think of it as more of a "Insanely-large-amount-of-substandard-emoticons Pit".

everytime people trying to make a thread about bash pit it gets locked by a mod, and get ignored. It's pretty clear to me MOST of the poeple on the forum wants it back, hence the multiple threads about getting bash pit back and also, in the last bash pit thread that CC made, 80%+ that posted there said they want bash pit back.

25 people who want the bash pit back is not "most of the forum members."

The bash pit was removed because it brings down the overall maturity level of the forums and the crap from the bash pit leaks into other parts of the forums.  We got rid of the bash pit when we moved to the new forums and I don't think anyone has ever tried to deny the fact that it has been the primary reason that the new forums are so much more mature and clean.

Why not just say the bash pit is never coming back and lock this thread and all upcoming ones like it?

What is the bash pit. I'm too new of a forum member to know.

Just from context clues and not finding an actual definition, I take that it's a tree in the forums where we pick out a name out of a hat and make fun of them and put them down until they cry?

I may be completely wrong, but I always seem to hear about bash pit in topics with huge disagreement appointed to one or more people.

Yeah, it was pretty much a big spamfest where only hacks and porn was moderated like graham said.  There were some interesting stickies though.  There was one about Mancer being fat.
