Discussion trailed off, but last and recent are equivalent on the RHS, but recent gives you a full page (if there are enough posts) for the main column threads.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

John - your "How-to" looks good. I may make a few small changes. e.g. "you're reading posts 256 to 265", not 266, and "the date and time", instead of "EST".
What do you think of "How to be a Buffista" for the page title?

Of course.
What do you think of "How to be a Buffista" for the page title?
I don't really think it's the right title for that page. It's more of a "how does this work?" thing. Do we have a good quote for that kind of situation?

Nobody
You could use "You may ask yourself, how do I work this?" if you want an obscure Talking Heads reference.

Seriously, Dude, Where's My Car?
To bring this back bureauracywards, do I guess from this that when we finish 'Dude, where's my precious?' we can simply move on to 'LotR 2: Seriously, Dude, where's my Precious?'

Q. NAFDA? Is that an international Buffista treaty?
A. Ummm..... No. It's the North American Free Discussion Area. We have many posters who aren't from North America and are therefore half a season or more behind. In order to keep them unspoiled, we limit discussion of current episodes to specific threads. These are the NAFDA threads. If it's not labeled as a NAFDA thread, don't talk about current episodes in it.
Suggested addition:
We also ask that you don't discuss one show's current season in another show's topic without whitefont, because some people are on tape delay. This means that events from the current season of Buffy should be whitefonted in the Angel topic and vice versa.
Hey, if it's going to be a rule it oughta be written down...
