since they will likely see the threads on the main page,
Well, if they use the message center, and read new, they never have to see the main page! Okay, unless you're having that funky thing where it redirects you to the main page. But that isn't happening to *me*, so I don't really care about it!

But, seriously, won't that still pose a problem? Like if they see "Buffy 16: Uh Oh, Daddy's Home" people might unwillingly go nuts trying to figure out what context *that* came out of.

Here's the exact quote for the Stompy Foot Thread-Makers:
Like more than one ex-nerd of my acquaintance, Whedon compulsively peppers his speech with self-deprecating asides: ''Oh, my God, I am a hack,'' he moans as we watch Fillion, his thumbs hooked in the belt loops of his skintight slacks, swagger back onto the ship's bridge. But like his show's hero, Whedon exudes confidence.
