I'm kind of against a push to add content. I'll articulate it when I've figured out how to do so, but for the moment, let me just say spreading things too thin isn't a good notion.

Even without articulation, I can see the point. I don't think anyone can keep up on all the posts now.

Now, adding resources whose primary users are us? I'm all for that (cf episode database). But content seems like a deliberate expansion, one whose ramifications and requirements need to be carefully considered.

Here's something that I didn't know would happen: if I'm on a computer that isn't my own - - like today when I'm at the public library - - it still remembers me at this terminal. . . should that be happening?

The problem occurs when the computer kicks me off - - if I don't log-out of the Phoenix Board before hand, it's remembering me.

So does this mean I have to set my preferences for logging me out each time?

Sumi -- yes. Remember me does just that. If you don't want to take that setting off, then you need to manually log off every time you use a shared computer, just like WX or TT or PF.

Okay. . . I'll have to be careful then.

One thing someone (Evil Jimi?) said in a joking tone, was that the developers might sell the code.

Some coder types (ie, my husband) are big on open source.

Sumi, my preferences are set to Remember Me, but if I deliberately log out from my work computer, it logs me out.

Yes. That's it exactly, and I think that deliberate expansion rather than organic growth is a dangerous path.

Heh, now that we're finally ensconced on Buffista Island I am definitely getting a "let's pull up the drawbridge" vibe.

I'm fine with that, I guess, but I would like to have a few breadcrumbs out there that might lure in discriminating viewers. I would still like to make up some Anyas for this current season.

I am anti-content.

We have filk. We can Anya all we want. We can write the Great American Novel. We can post it on the site and point neon signs at it.

But I don't think we need to create some whole other thing...

We've been here less than a week. It's heaven-on-a-stick. Before we start with the self-gratifying imperialistic tendencies, let's make sure the needs of everyone currently on the boards have been met, that everything works, and that we've made whatever simple improvements we can that would offer a large return on the effort expended.
