I've thought about the Board-After-Buffy days myself (and hoping the Board-After-Angel days are a couple of years off). I would still hang with the Bitches, and I hope the Fic boards are still there as well. When/if we lose the shows, we might want to put in threads where we can debate issues that came up in the episodes, like we have in the show threads. I don't want to lose you folk.
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.

Though I don't natter, it really is the heart of the Buffistas now. And it's important to acknowledge that fact and change the definition paragraph in the "About this Site".
For various reasons, interest in and extreme love for the shows that originally brought us all together are dying.
I strongly disagree with all of this. I still see as much love for the shows as there's ever been. Sure folks complain about things, but we've been complaining at least since I joined up in Salon over three years ago. The show threads are still the heart of this board as far as I'm concerned. Just because Natter is the fastest moving thread doesn't make it the heart. It's true that we may soon need to redefine our mission statement, but that day isn't here yet.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to imply that there is no one left, no love for the shows. I was thinking of the furture in general. Guess its too soon to think about it.
I was thinking of the future in general.
Try not to use the present tense next time. ;)
And I don't think it's too soon to think about it. But we're not dead yet! t /python
Um, about that movies thread ... do we have a slug now?
Yes, I'm going to nag about this until it's started, probably endlessly. Sorry.
Here's a wacky proposition: Let's not write the rules for a thread we don't have yet. Let's open Movies. And when we hit post 1000 or some other designated number or date, let's pull together our collected gribes and see where we stand.
This is why Jen is God. Clapton is passe'.
Bitches are about to need a new thread.
And yet I don't think Bitches agreed on a title.
Anything with violence, so I'll go with "Bite You". And I can't post anymore in the thread, does it automatically lock at 10002?
