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.

DCJ, is that what you want out of her thread? Is that what's most useful to you? How do you define notable?
I don't use the thread -- that's why I don't care. And I wouldn't make suggestions for it outside of Nilly hewing to her comfort zone for that reason.
Does anyone use the links to Timbits? Those people should pipe up.

I use them, because I can't keep up with all of the nattery posts in that thread.
I am totally for Nilly doing whatever makes her comfortable, but if she decides to stop doing the Tim posts it would be nice if she could still post links to posts about any new projects he may be working on.
Nilly's comfort is of utmost importance.
Of course it should be up to Nilly, but personally, I don't think it's any more stalkerish to point to his posts than it is to, say, have a thread dedicated to the man.
Well, the thread is about his work. His posts aren't, necessarily. I mean to say that "what Tim ate for dinner" isn't really covered under the Minearverse topic, but it's perfectly legitimate for him to post about. Or something like that. So, a little more stalkerish.
As a matter of process, just because an offensive post is deleted, doesn't make it any less in existence and doesn't rule out it being brought here?
Hypothetically?
I don't equate deletion with apology, and have asked for one in-thread.
the first step is to handle it in thread. Just keep in mind that deleting and or refraining from posting is "stopping" we cannot mandate apologies. We can choose to ignore and/or block.
It is being dealt with in-thread at the moment. Hopefully it can be resolved there.
