There are no absolutes. No right and wrong. Haven't you learned anything working for the Powers? There are only choices.

Could we move the "Last Updated" and "What was updated" parts of the FAQ intro to the top? It will make the lazy scrollers amongst us happy!
I don't understand. It's at the top of the FAQ...
Schmoker - it was asked in the middle of the torrent of posts, so perhaps you missed it - Are you the poster formerly known as mieskie?

Aww, man.
(But now I'll be quiet about thread names, I promise, it's over. ... Until number 4!)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Start making that list now. Overwhelm us when the time comes.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
COMM isn't a unilateral natter deletion thread, is it? We've bantered in there before.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Yeah, I was just going to ask about that. We've always Nattered just a little in COMM, without it being deleted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I don't think it is. Here are the blurbs for Beep Me and COMM:
If the Apocalypse Comes, Beep Me
Birth, death, illness, new job, vacation...if it's happening to you and you want us to know about it, post it here. These threads are intended for announcements only. Want to offer sympathy or congratulations, or talk about anything? Take it to Natter. Any natter here will be deleted.

This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here. This is also Shrift's source for the BRQG, so be aware that if your words end up here, they'll also end up there. Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.
COMM doesn't say it's a natter-free zone, so I don't think it is. Or should be.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I thought the deletions were for repeated COMMs (a situation I forsee happening quite often in the future now that the MM&Phill Show has returned).

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Yeah, but even then we've let those slide.

Things should not be deleted in COMM. It shouldn't be nattery, but it's not, to the best of my knowledge, a Natter-free-stomp-stomp zone.
