The rule (without looking at the descriptions or FAQ) as I understood it was: If there's a thread for it (i.e. one of our shows, like an ME production or bastard thereof), you can't discuss current season in Natter. If it's a non-our-show (24, Alias, Survivor, Jack and Bobby, etc.), we could white font (indicating what show was being in white font) and discuss in Natter. In addition, all shows were fair game in the NAFDA threads, like Bitches.
Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a space ship, dear. Wash: So?

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Well, there were all these people who don't get a blank screen when stuff is whitefonted -- which is why we really had to stop the whitefont, isn't it?
Is that true with the quick-edit "s" code too, or was it just with t font color="white" ? I remember it was a browser issue.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Cindy, as I understand it, the middle ground was never written down.
I'm very opposed to current seasons of everything becoming okay in Natter. Not just because Jars and Am Chau could ruin us all for MI-5. It just ain't right.
If all current stuff becomes verboten, then we'd pretty much have to have a TV thread, and I think I've been talkative enough about that.
I like the current system (the one *I* was following, in my head) quite a bit (which is kinda why I was following it).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Me too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I like it too, for the reasons stated by others.

Everything in black font, white font, or any font at all? In other words, given your druthers, would we forbid the white font conversations we've been having?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Right. The current system (whitefont in Natter) isn't broke, and does not need fixing.
I don't think that the current system is formally written down anyplace, however, which might be where the problem lies.

Just curious, but is there anyone who still has this problem?

I don't think the current system exists, exactly. I mean, sumi's been going on a two-week, and I've been going on 52 weeks.
Whatever the period is (and I am obviously biased), just yell and I'll drop it into the description.

All our Lynx users may have gone away, but they did exist at the start of the Phoenix board.
