Jayne ,'War Stories'
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.
Current Stompy Feet: ita, Jon B, DXMachina, P.M. Marcontell, Liese S., amych
Also, it was known to the folks in the thread, but I had to be chased out of Natter and into that thread when I brought up Stargate, so it's not commonly known.
Huh. I wish someone had done that for me when I brought up BSG in Natter, as I had no idea it was being discussed elsewhere.
I think the current quo is that it's almost the SF TV thread.
Vonnie - are those exclusive options? I think if it's not not the place for all SF TV, we take the show names out of the title. After the spoiler policy is determined, of course.
I really like the idea of no names, but a SF focus. I don't post often, but I do subscribe the the thread, and I enjoyed it more when I realized other SF shows were being discussed as well.

Nah, I'm just thinkin' out loud. I'm not being the Official Proposal Submitter or some such. Wait a minute. There isn't going to be a vote, is there? Aeeeiii.

The double-neg is throwing me off a bit--you mean, let's just come out and call the thread The Sci-Fi TV thread? Aw. I guess that'd simplify things, although I'm kind of attached to seeing the show names spelled out like they are now--but not, like, psychotically attached or anything. So... calling it Sci-Fi TV thread is OK by me. I'd like to hear other frequent posters on Box Set thread to chime in some more though.
I *think* ita was more suggesting keeping it named Boxed Set, but taking the show names out of the title.
As it is, the thread is called Boxed Set, vol. 1: Smallville, Due South, Farscape
After it turns over, it seems most appropriate to call it Boxed Set, vol. 2: Insert Clever Title Here or whatever.
After we decide a whitefont policy, of course.
SF Box Set Vol 2: SV, DS, FS, SG, BSG, and TBA
A sound spoiler font policy is the big thing.
t sits by Vonnie's Spoiler position
I think listing the shows does get unwieldy. I vote we bite the bullet and subtitle it "sci-fi tv" or somesuch
I won't talk about the rules, since I don't participate. But the Insert Clever Title Here ought to be Pandora's Box. Just cuz.
t getting ahead of ourselves
