'Objects In Space'
Bureaucracy 1: Like Kafka, Only Funnier
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.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I will officially abstain. I can see the pros and cons of having these threads. If they are created, I will likely use them. If they are not created, I won't miss having them.

I'm tallying, and voting yes.
[Tal, nickname Taly or Tali, is a name in Hebrew, so the word 'tallying' always looked wrong for me, like taller, only not. And it doesn't help that my best friend from highschool, Tal, is around 6 feet tall]

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Can anyone do one of those poll-taking thingies that was used for cafepress merchandise? Or is that a tricky thing to do?
eta Okay, scratch that if Nilly's on the case.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

What's the web site we normally use for free polls? think that will be handier than doing it in here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Nilly (god, I'm lazy) -- could you put a post in Press about the vote and link to the start of the discussion?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I vote yes.
But I wonder why it needs to be a vote. In the past people have asked for new threads to address a particular interest (like TTT or Farscape). If enough people were interested to sustain such a thread it was made. It wasn't a majority vote.
Since subscriptions allow people to avoid threads that don't interest them it needn't clutter up their message board.

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
I vote that I don't give a crap one way or the other. Is there a space for that on the ballot?

Because there's dissent, I'm going to guess, Hec.
Why didn't it happen the first time?
