Fred ,'Just Rewards (2)'
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.
Current Stompy Feet: ita, Jon B, DXMachina, P.M. Marcontell, Liese S., amych
What prompted my question is that Tim is listed as a famous citizen...alongside ita, Hec, jengod. The purpose of Tim's listing is to say, "yes, that really is Tim, in case you were suspicious."
Like I said, matters not to me, either way. I was just lobbing it out there.
I think when we added Tim, he was posting fairly regularly. That has never been the case with Joss. I'm not opposed to adding Joss to the FAQ, but I'm not sure he needs to be in there either.
I'm kinda starting to wonder about creating a separate faq at all. Is ours already unmanageable that we wouldn't be able to tuck in some more basic show questions? Would it make it unusable for other people who don't care about our boards to have just the one?
We could edit the FAQ to take out stuff no one asks about anymore...e.g., Cousin Klingon, the OCM, GGG, KoB, Stortroopers, and Why We Have So Many Threads. But I admit those questions don't take up a lot of space.
I love the FAQ and always end up reading the whole thing. I'm surprised that people can't make it all the way through...how then would you even make it through a thread?

I was having a similar thought, and including 5x5 in the list, and then someone asked about it! But I think the ones you have are clear.
I would agree with cutting those and integrating the Mythology FAQ into the big FAQ, if that's what the consensus is. I think the original thought was creating more a fandom resource than a Buffista resource, hence the new FAQ.
Would Previously be the right place to get answers for the Qs on the list that I can't find?
I think there should be a separate show faq, and that there are other things that can be pared from the current one.
edit: Schmoker, we've always been averse to Joss or Mineartising. In fact, when someone started clipping Tim's posts way back in the before time and posting them around, there was a lot of nervousness and some surprise.
There are many wrong reasons to come here. Talking to show folk is certainly one of them.
Not to interrrupt the FAQ talk, but do we have a name for Natter 7 yet?
I think the frontrunner was "We need Natter 7, and we might take yours," or one of the other spins on the Gentlemen's poem.
Fair enough. Though I'd prefer a Natter related title as opposed to just a Buffy related title. Of course, I can't think of one...
All 7 and we'll watch them fall?
