I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Well, I'm seeing a pretty big gulf between the two schools of thought here.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think the idea of what it means to be Buffista becomes much blurrier without BtVS and with subcommunities that become insular.
Subcommunities have been insular for YEARS, though, and those divisions formed while both shows were still on the air.
I think the discussion is worthwhile because I'd like the board structure to foster interaction horizontally, across sub-communities.
I really don't think this is something that can be controlled.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
why would being a part of this community because of BtVS be a bad thing?
What if you hate Buffy? Would you not then be able to be part of the community?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Oh. Okay, I get that. I was reading it wrong.

Errrr....why would being a part of this community because of BtVS be a bad thing?
It would be a bad thing for me as I stopped watching BtVS back in Season 6.

I read it wrong, I think. It made me bristle, because of the idea that coming to b.org because of BtVS is a bad thing, when really I ought to have read it to mean "It's cool if you don't like BtVS; you can still belong here."

It was more meant as a "And thank god for that. Or else I'd have to find some other place to waste time at work."
