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.
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.
Exactly why we should strive to not make new users think He will post every Saturday.

I'd say that's an argument against having him in the FAQ. That said, I like what Michele said.
David Fury posted once
He did? I just double-checked and didn't find any posts in the search engine.

At WX.
Oh, OK.
Jon ... I'm not fussed. I was just passing on the info I had learned.

I didn't think you were (if I understand that OZ slang correctly ;) ). I really thought you wanted something in theFAQ corrected. No worries.
As someone new to the fold, or at least new as a poster, let me say that mentioning that people might occasionally see a post from a show member or writer is probably cool as long as you don't word it so you are using it as an enticement for people.
As long as you are not using it to mislead people into thinking that by coming here they will get to regularly converse with ME people, then there should not be a problem. Because it is kind of cool that they do occasionally drop by. And the truth should always be ok to advertise.
Truth - there might be an ME post once in a blue moon.
Non-truth (known as a "lie" prior to the year 2000)- Joss comes on a lot and will be picking his favorite posters to appear on the show.
