'Serenity'
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.

I guess my question is, if the Official Word is Wanda=not OK, TVGuide=OK, how do you know where other things fall. If I saw it on E! is it OK? If I read it online at the Washington Post website?
I just don't know how to make it clear for new people, and I think that's what the policy/blurb need to be.
"When in doubt, white it out" was the policy at WX.
Personally, I'd love to read a thread with whitefonted spoilers, each with a description of what kind of spoiler it is.
See, this is why I avoid spoiler threads entirely, even though I don't necessarily avoid getting spoiled. It's just easier.
Ok so it is pretty clear that everyone but me is anti-thread drift (or at least an overwhelming majority).
I may be misunderstanding you, but I thought it was the other way around. What many of us like about Natter is the thread drift from topic to topic, and therefore we didn't want to see topic-specific Natter threads.

Burrell speaks for me. I love going into Natter and having no clue where those 40 (or more) unread messages are going to take me.
I do like the idea of a tape fairy thread.
Okay, all of you fairy lovers ... thread title?
Hmm.
Curse You, Technology!

When come back, bring tape.
Yes Virginia, There is a Tape Fairy
See it on Tape Delay
When Good Tapes Go Bad
Damn. Trumped.
