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.

I've never seen an instance of a sustained analysis that would take both shows into account. They have very little in common these days.
I've seen a lot of it, just not here, unless its in Spoilers, because the task of whitefonting the various points is too much of a pain in the ass for any sort of in-depth thing. Hell, I was reading some good essays about both shows earlier today.
I refrain from it because of the white font policy, fwiw. Thematically, I've always discussed the shows together. I'm glad we're making a move to limit the white font time period in NAFDA. Either the weekend or the week is fine with me.
Just make the edit specifically state that it is an edit. That should placate any potential drama queens.
And add something to the FAQ or the slug, in the event that new people who were not a part of the discussion make the first post.
Also, does WUTW mean Friday night, Saturday, or Sunday?
How about the end of the week, board time? i.e., after midnight Eastern time Saturday night/Sunday morning.
Just because it would be incredibly weird and quirkily Buffista, I propose that "weekend" in this case mean "whenever Nilly's Sabbath is done".
I think "until the next episode airs" will be easier for people to keep track of.
That does have a certain coolness to it, amych. I'm not really involved with this discussion, though.

What about the hiatus times, like we're on on Angel right now?

You know what's even quirkier about it? That it'll be a different hour every week!
I agree with the 'no War Thread' group, from all the reasons stated above. I know that it sometimes feel wrong to post 'serious' posts in the middle of fun natter, but I also feel pretty sure that if this is what is on my mind and is important to me, that's the treatment the post will get from the Buffistas. I'm always reluctant to mention the (quite terrible) political situation in Israel in here, not because I don't trust the conversation to flow, but because it is pretty much a 'safe haven' for me, with people who don't have to face these things daily. However, each time I (or others) have mentioned it, I was assured that I wasn't 'bringing the board down' and 'depressing everybody', but getting the opportunity to share these feelings and thoughts with others, with you guys - and isn't that what natter is all about?
I'm babbling and I lost my point.

I know! But I'm eeevil that way.
