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.
Current Stompy Feet: ita, Jon B, DXMachina, P.M. Marcontell, Liese S., amych
Chex:
ita, do you think it's an ambiguity of the formal Stompy duties that makes you feel vacuous? Like, how many posts do you need, or whether you need unanimity, or some kind of minimum complainant turnout for you to feel empowered to act Stompily?
That's sort of a side issue from what we've been talking about, but I've had it in the back of my mind for a while to bring up. At some future date, when other things weren't all happening at once.
msbelle: No natter in the bureaucracy thread!!!
Victor -- we need to move the users to the read-only box.
Except WX is being a bitch again.
Yeah, that was basically my conclusion.
Phoenix's first FAQ addition suggestion:
From Press, now deleted, from Vortex (the artist formerly known as Stephanie Johnson), Rebecca Lizard and me:
Q. What's the difference between Sunnydale Press and Beep Me, the two announcement threads?
A. Sunnydale is for general announcements that everybody needs to read--what would have made its rounds through every thread in the past. Beep Me is personal life announcements- cheat sheet, in a way, for those who don't keep up with Natter and still want to know what's going on in Buffistas' lives.
(Press is for when you're having a book signing and when you want everybody to come. Apocalypse is for when you get the book contract and you want to crow about your good fortune.)
Phoenix's second FAQ addition suggestion, from folks I forgot to make note of:
Q. Everybody's talking about their user ID numbers. How do I find mine?
A. Click on your username, and look at the number at the end of the URL it brings up. Or just do a mouse-over.
Since it's unfinished from WX, just thought I'd mention that Bugaloo still has the lights on. ita's "check it out" post isn't at the end. FYI.
Got it, Beverly, thanks.
You didn't see a posting box, did you?
Also a FAQ change for the email address for donatations:
donations@buffistas.org.
