Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Our wings are not tired.

Is there a place where questions have been asked and answered? I’ve asked about thread-suck before, and also I and others have asked about being able to see threads with new posts without having to scroll down the whole list using message center, and I don’t see any answers. I know Gud is busy, what I don’t know is if it was decided that thread-suck ability wouldn’t be part of this board or not? And I just didn’t see the discussion?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

javachik, I don't know of any discussions elsewhere.

To make requests or report issues directly, I think you can do that in GitLab. See this post and the one that follows it: [link]

Thank you!

ETA: hmmm that’s not quite what I’m looking for.

Hey, Gud or whoever else is working on the new board - there's some kind of glitch in the Buffy quotes that pop up at the top - it's always saying they're from a S7 episode. The Angel and Firefly quotes are fine

What is even happening?

Hey Gud, I don't know if you maybe peek in here, but we've been looking for you (not for anything to do with the board, just to know you're okay). If you drop by, please say hi, so we can see your pixels.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Spam???

Yeah, the account was just created today. Any objection to my deleting and kicking off the user?

The link for our archived threads [link] should be added to the lefthand sidebar menu.

Also, some of the archived threads are empty. That is, I can click on the thread, and get the thread header, but no content. Others are fine.

Examples of empty archived threads:

Firefly 3: [link]

Bitches 20: [link]

Natter 30: [link]

Buffistechnology: [link]

Quotable Angel: [link]

Bitches 19: [link]

Natter 29: [link]

Natter 28: [link]

Previously 1: [link]

Spoilers 2: [link]

Examples of archived threads that seem fine:

Jossverse 1: [link]

Other Media: [link]

I stopped going through them at this point, because I don't know what's causing the problem -- if it's a just a setting or something more.
