I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Even I got tingly, and I had no idea. But I knew something was afoot!

DX and I had that mysterious exchange on one of these threads. It was all very tingly.

Then I left town for two days and missed His posts. :(

Am I supposed to be on that admin mailing list? I don't think I am, and I'm still an admin. I kind of moved email addresses shortly after we got here, and also in October. Current profile address is good.

Someone wanna go correct the last post in Firefly, which attempts to spoiler-font something and fails?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, good thing I'd already seen that spoiler. Sigh.

There's two different "lists". One is just a POP/IMAP/WebBasedMail mailbox that some Admins access regularly. All you need is the server info and password. That's where the new member emails go. The other is a "normal" listserv that hasn't had any traffic in weeks that I know of.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

IIRC, ita sent the password for the mailbox out via the list, so if you changed e-mail, you might not have gotten it. I can send it to you when I get home (real late tonight, our time).

John, insent to your profile address.

(Remembered the password).

Thanks for that. Should I be looking at the other mailbox regularly? And what am I looking for when I do it? Apart from things like the creator of Buffy actually signing up!

I'm really not cool, am I?

Just the occasional question or request for a password reset. 95% of the messages are of the auto-generated "JoeShmoe is the newest Buffista" variety.
