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.

Also, would people who are reading spoiler font remember to use spoiler font, as DX mentioned?
The more I think about it, the messier it gets. What if you've turned off spoiler font, and want to quoteback something someone else has said? If you're a good Buffista citizen, you'll have to turn the spoiler font back on to see exactly what parts of the passage you're quoting are spoiler fonted so you can duplicate the spoiler fonting in the quoteback. Then you actually have to do all the requisite spoiler fonting in the quoteback and in your own post, and then you can turn spoiler font off again. Until the next time you want to post something. That's gonna get to be a huge pain in the ass.
I'm ready to vote for a Spoiler Lite thread and focus the current thread on hard-core spoilers.
What needs to be done?
Would you like to make a proposal, LeN? Word the actual vote?
Come on in -- the water's fine!
The rules for a proposal and vote etc. are here.
Okay, let me start with a proposal in bold font and run it up a flag pole:
I propose the addition of a Spoiler Lite thread and I propose the current Spoiler thread be designated as content for "hard core" spoilers and spoiler discussion.
le nubian, you might want to add the definition of a Spoiler Lite thread. Although I guess all the people who are interested in it already know what it is. Eh. This isn't my concern.
P-C - hell, I didn't go to Spoiler Lites when there was a thread. If someone else comes up with a def, I will absolutely amend and incorporate.
