Am-Chau, I sort of get your gist, but really, that would imply that AAA or the Society For Creative Hairdos or the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce was "affiliated" with Joss just because he's a member.
We're not affiliated with Joss Whedon; if anything, he's affiliated with us, by becoming a member. And either way, it's Buffistas : person, not Buffistas : corporation (ME). I don't think it's an issue.
Well, don't mind me too much, because I suspect I'm not as rational as I normally am (various life things are upsetting me, and that may be carrying over). By all means, we're not affiliated with ME, and we should be saying that.
I don't *mind* you, Am-Chau, but I like you an awful lot. I hope that's okay.
Do we need a FAQ for DNFtEC? I saw that on TT first & assumed it was a widely used acronym. Perhaps I'm wrong.
The question's been popping up, so although it's standard, it can't hurt.
A couple of people mentioned asking a question and 300 posts getting in between it and the answer - I don't think that's really a good description of the flow of Natter.
Then, from Laura:
I think that's me, and it's not what I meant. What I was referring to was starting a conversation and not being able to follow it because there are 300 posts between the time I started it and the next time I come to the site.
Actually, it was me that put that, but I think I was sharing Laura's brain, or she was channelling me, or something.
Disclaimers are almost always a good idea. I say: Go Forth and Dislaim Ye Officiall-y Goodness
But what does DNFtEC mean? Is it like a trouble with Tribbles reference?
I think it's from GEnie days.
But what does DNFtEC mean?

Man, we live in a world where we can trace the origin of the first smiley, it's pretty sorry that the Google search for GEnie DNFtEC is only two entries. And neither of them know anything about its origins.
