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.

About the categories, seriously, how about "Special Threads" and just one long category?

I mean, "Site Administration" contains five threads, and I would argue that three of them aren't anything to do with site administration.

"Tools and Archives", well, Michelle's explained her thinking, but is "Meijaville" a site Tool or Archive? Not if you take it to mean "Site Tools and Site Archives" it isn't.

There are Discussion Threads, so marked, and there are other, special threads. Any attempt to further categorise is just taking up space and space is what people are complaining about.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm with Michele. I like the sidebar thread order as is. It appeals to my sense of order and urgency. I wouldn't mind if we shortened slugs to make Jen and others happy.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'd like to see BaBB and Voting swap spots. Seems like voting should be right under Kafka.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Whitefont possibly needed for post 4665 in Buffy? (I'm not spoiled, so I don't know if that's a spoiler, but I really wish I hadn't read that.)

In context, it looks like speculation. I don't want to white font it because then everyone will assume it's a spoiler, when I'm pretty sure it's not.

It seems to be spec.

Although I freaked for a moment when folks started talking about a spoiler she had posted. Then I realized it was about something else (the contract of a particular character).

Yeah.

Dude, I'm spoiled. I see spoilers from Peeps I know are spoiled? I'll call them on it, come hell, high water, and semi-flaming.

What I'm saying, you pure-hearted-unicorn-bait-virgin-goombas, is that I've got your back.

Also, that wine is nice, and I think sobriety is overrated.

Oh, and that Lent and I may have broken up.

Thanks, Plei. You're a peach. We are as goooooods. t edit And I just realized that that comment was sorta spoilery (in a non-NAFDA way). Heh.

Ah, Jon, I love you all, too.

Consider my spoiled state taking one for the team and loving it. Err, or something.

But nah, spoilers do not pass go or collect $200 on my watch, damn it.
