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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'll need to finish writing the threadsuck before those threads can be added to the archive.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Interesting point. I doubt that keeping the old threads around in the main area affects performance, but after a while, the main page will look rather cluttered. I think that once we've gotten a threadsuck utility going, we'll start to archive old Phoenix threads.

t spooky x-post with ita

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

You should also keep yourself subscribed to Natter 1 and 2 so that the search function will search them when you search your subscribed threads.

Yeah, that was my point. And I was just thinking about the Set Profile page and what it'll look like when we're up to Natter 29 again.

If I only had a brain...

We need a new line in the FAQ's ita entry:

Oh, and she's a moon in the Firefly universe.

Our wings are not tired.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

How do you know who hasn't posted? (unless it's just yer general celestial omniscience)

Every post has a user-id associated, so I ran a list of the unique ids.

That and sheer heavenly knowledge.
