Aha! Je comprends.
Bureaucracy 1: Like Kafka, Only Funnier
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.

Heh. For me, Steph, the number means little, but looking it up is easy. If you put the title? It STILL wouldn't mean much to me for many eps ("wait, is that the one where they have sex, or is that the other one, where there's the monster with the claws..."), and I'd have to look up the title anyway. :)

In other news, I want to ask whether it would be possible to change the font-page description of what the Spike's Bitches are. As was pointed out this morning, we still love Spike and hold him near and dear to our hearts and other places, but he's not really the center of the talk at all any more. It's more like a mini-Natter with heavy concentrations of clothing, oost, writing, and love talk. The current thread description makes it sound as though Spike is all we talk about, and I'd hate to lose any potential future members if they don't specifically and absolutely love Spike. 'Cause I almost didn't join, way back on WX, for that exact reason.
Well, if we make it sound like mini-Natter, there's really no reason for it to exist, and the sub-culture (if you will) of Bitches is different from that of Natter proper.
Which is to say, yeah, maybe the description should be changed, but I wouldn't call it mini-Natter.
It's the girl-talk thread, a virtual slumber party where we try on corsets, braid each other's hair and talk about boys (and girls).
Heh. A lot closer.
It's kinda the TMI thread, what with sex and depression and stuff.
Current:
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion that sometimes gets enthusiastic, bawdy, lusty, lewd and raunchy. Mature audiences only.
Suggested revision:
[NAFDA] The girl-talk thread -- a virtual slumber party where we try on corsets, braid each other's hair, talk about boys (and girls), and nothing is TMI. Oh, and some of us think Spike is hot.
You might mention that some boys occasionally stop in on the girl-talk.
You might mention that some boys occasionally stop in on the girl-talk.
And some more than occasionally (Hec).
t edit I don't like "girl-talk" because a lot of it isn't -- like the body image discussion, the Am I Crazy? discussions.
Plus, we should keep the line "Mature audiences only."
What about:
[NAFDA] A virtual slumber party where we try on corsets, braid each other's hair, talk about boys (and girls), and nothing is TMI. Oh, and some of us think Spike is hot. Boys are outnumbered, but we love you anyway.
