I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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.

Our wings are not tired.

Does that invalidate my logic in any way?

No. Just that your statement seemed to refer to the board while the B.org statement refers to the community.

Originally a community dedicated to discussions of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and Firefly with humor, intelligence and obsessiveness. Read our FAQ, then join the fun.

This doesn't really reflect the original community while it does reflect the origins of the board.

I'm just confusing myself here.

Steph's was quite lovely.

Although I am in the change is evil camp it won't make me cry to change. The only times I go to the Home Page would be to subscribe to a thread, or if I'm posting away from home. The board description probably should be helpful to new users and not just nostalgic for old farts like me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

By some lights, we weren't originally discussing Angel either, were we? You just draw your line earlier than I do.

I can't recommend the wayback machine highly enough.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Originally, we were just about Buffy. But I think the casual observer can pick that up from "buffistas."

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I like Allyson's version.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Change is scary. Also evil.

We should have a cage match between the real old timers (Dana, people named Connie, Holli, etc.) and new people (ID numbers over 1500).

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

Wow, sweet, I count as non-new!

Our wings are not tired

Buffistas.org: A community of authors, rocket scientists, teachers, martial arts experts, lawyers, and other miscreants from around the globe who found each other through an unhealthy obessession with the little girl and her big stake. Buffy's gone, but we're still here; a little older, a little wiser, and still shamelessly addicted to television.

THIS!
