I'm not too emphatic about it either. It just worries me. A lot of fans know Joss's name but not Tim's, so including it would make us even higher-profile than we've been of late.

"He showed up a couple of times, but don't depend on it happening any time soon."
Yes.
Tim interacts with us. He responds to posts and "knows" some of the other posters. Joss' time here has been different. Other than one post where he responded to the hodgeberry comments, He's just made His pronouncements and left.
I just think, if you were going to put it up, you'd have the same description as Tim. Is that really Joss Whedon? "Damn right."
So Joss is not a citizen? Okey dokey.
My post above wasn't intended to be snarky, by the way. I think it's great that Joss has stopped by. But his visits have been different from Tim's
I'm a little wary of advertising that Joss Posts Here.
I'm gonna be bitchy for a moment and say that I think this is a non-issue. Is Joss going to show up around here again? I doubt it. Unless he has a new show to promote or is trying to save one of his existing ones, we won't be seeing him around these parts.
Maybe after the Tim stuff, we can say:
Q: So, do other people associated with the show post here too?
A: Joss came by a couple of times to post about Firefly, and David Fury posted once. But it's not any sort of regular occurrence. If that's what you're looking for, try the Bronze Beta (or wherever they post now: make the name a clickable link.)
Joss could be a citizen if he wanted to be or had time to be. But posting twice, in a relatively non-interactive way, doesn't make him so. Tim is here erratically, but when he is, he responds to us and hangs about a bit.
But that said, I think "Famous Citizens" is the most appropriate place for the Joss-related question to go.
Just MHO, YBMV.
