You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Nice Raq, there.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Too bad we can't have little dots to click at the top of the posting box that would insert a box with the show we are writing about just above one's post.
SG1, SGA, Smallville, Due South, Farscape, BSG, Other, etc.
Then one could easily skip over posts that say [SGA], for example.
Just a musing, not an actual proposal at this time.

Actually, I don't think I like that idea. One of the things about this board is that you are forced to view, even just in passing, all the posts in a thread (except those of a poster you've blocked, of course). The posts on Stargate SG-1 actually helped get me into watching the show, and if I'd just read Boxed Set posts relating to Farscape, I'd have missed all that.
It's part of the community experience to have to scroll past stuff you don't think you're interested in; changing it the way you describe makes each post more of a blog post with tags, rather than part of an ongoing discussion with the other people in the thread.

Same view as 'Suela, and I have Boxed Set and posts about shows I didn't watch to thank for getting me to revisit Farscape. And get Spooks. And Dr. Who. All of which, love. Selfishly, I like the way it works right now.

So, is it going to be simply, "Building A Better Board 2", or a Betterer Board, or what? Was this decided on awhile ago?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
BaBB2: Even Better.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Was this decided on awhile ago?
Yes. I forget what it was.
eta: something with '++' in it, I think. But '++' can't be searched for, apparantly.
B²aB²++, maybe?

I was thinking it'd be kind of neat to see how long we can go without killing the last two posts in the old thread.
