DX, I just noticed -- the FAQ and Links links on the filk site still point to geocities and go.to.
Oops. You're right. Will fix shortly.
It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Okay, the links in the filk site are fixed, and I changed the reference to the Buffista Contingency Plan to the Buffista Phoenix.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Question: Where is Natter 29? I checked Archives and Plan, I can't find it either place. Was it eaten in the exodus upheaval?

Peel it and see
OK, these are all good points. I'll give private shout-outs to the people at TWoP who would enjoy us, and not post anything publically.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

This is by no means an urgent request, nor a particularly important one -- in the FAQ, the URL for the BRQG is [link] I've got a redirect up at that URL that points to:
And, since I'm thinking about it, I'll go change the URL pointing back to the Buffistas on the BRQG to the Phoenix board.

I would be against creating a thread specifically for the mocking of badfic just because that's not how this board works, I don't think-- at TT, you could start a new thread for a new *topic* of dicussion, but here, threads are for *areas* of discussion (like, fic), within which topics (like, badfic-mockage) crop up and die away. It's a different paradigm, and a basically a different *layout* and setup here; and-- do you see what I mean? I don't think I'm being silly, I think that's how this works.
Especially with the Message Center as the way to check your threads. I have too many threads to keep organized in my head to add another.

And just to make RL crazy, I'm going to suggest adding another thread.
I like to talk politics, as do some other Buffistas. However, when any type of political conversation goes on for any length of time sooner later you get a post along the lines "ignoring disturbing political conversation". Which generally I take as indication that they want to ignore the political discussion but are having to make an effort to do so - cause otherwise why mention that it is being ignored. And that particular conversation dies.
So my thought is: why not have a Buffista Politics thread? A nice, flame free place for poltical discussion that will not distract from discussion of corsets and gay vampire snuff porn. Not that politics would be completely excluded from natter and other places, but that if the discussion got extended it could move to politics.
