Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

The Minearverse 3: The Network Is a Harsh Mistress  

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

"Very occasionally, if you really pay attention, life doesn't suck." -Joss Whedon

The moral of the story is, don't depend on a corporate board. Have a back up board ready for downtime, and in case your internet community gets shut down.

Wrod. Signed, former Pathfinder/Entertainment Weekly/People.com/WB Bronze /Atlantic poster. I think a lot of those boards folded (or became paid services) because TPTB got fed up with the drama/bullshit that can happen in some communities.

Ahhhhh, I see. In the bits and pieces I shoved together in my head, I pictured a board divided, a great battle, and then a band of ruffians banding together and taking themselves overseas to start a new!colony that was the Buffistas.

I may have misunderstood this, but to be clear Buffistas evolved from Table Talk at Salon.com and W/X and not the WB Bronze, right?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Justin was nice to us. Not so nice to Deaton, methinks.

Though there was the painful emails Justin's business partner sent to Joss offering to build a board for a Mutant Enemy site where he continously called him "Josh."

Buffistas started as TableTalkers, i believe.

There are very, very few Bronzers here. Kristen brought me over to Table Talk about a year before it went pay-to-play and we moved to WorldCrossing.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

I'm sad that I missed out on so many valuable years of Buffy discussion when I could have been there. I mean, I was sitting around in a dorm room, watching all the Buffy my roomie could stomach, trolling around the internet. Did I ever think to put the two together and look around? Nooooo. Of course not. That would have been too clever of me.

Kristen brought me over to Table Talk

And I believe you made your posting debut as me.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I was just thinking that.

Me too. Though law school did limit my non-law related computer time.

I can post as Fury, here. Now that I think of it.
