Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thank you Jon!

Third thing:

We are decided earlier to put out an all-points bulletin to all the threads. This is the draft text:

Attention Buffistas!

Currently we are in a discussion about how issues on the Phoenix board are decided. If you are a newcomer, you may not know that we are entirely self-supporting and self-moderating, so any changes we make are decided by the entire community.

Please visit the Sunnydale Press thread here: (link to the voting post) for details. All further important messages about this board will be posted on this thread only. If you are interested, please check Press.

Questions and concerns can be addressed in the Bureaucracy Thread

Thank you so much for your continued participation in our community .

Thanks for all the fish.

I'll take Due South, LOTR and Atlantic Canadians for sure. Feel free to assign more to me if needed...

Also, when are we going to post this?

Thanks Elena!

I am going to post the Press note at about 11:55 (in about 10 minutes).

Feel free to change my wording to make it more fun! I can be abrupt.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

For future reference, I'd suggest that the next iteration of the poll take you to a "thank you, your vote has been received!" page after your vote is processed correctly -- the red band is really an awfully small an area to change the text in and have it be noticeable.


Laura - Feb 25, 2003 9:48:43 pm PST #5549 of 10001
Our wings are not tired.

Yikes, it is soon. I can take Bitches, Natter and Previously.

Of course, more if needed.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

OK, am I the only person besidse Liese who isn't sure why consensus has been largely unacceptable? Are there specific incidents I'm unaware of? A whole bunch of them?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I can put the APB in Spoilers, and both spoiler light threads.

Should I do that now?
