I'll second msbelle's proposal.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
In general, I think we tend to let one or two things go by, in the hope that they were abberations.
I'm never doing this again. Call 'em fast and call 'em early.

msbelle, does it need to be the same complainant who makes the request in thread as makes the request here.
Justkim, I don't mind the zealot part. Hell. I'm a zealot about a fair number of things. But vengeful?
It did give me a new tag though.
Also, this experience is positive insofar as I'm finding all sorts of agreement with others with whom I normally have divergent opinions.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
FWIW, I took Zoe's "zealots" comment to mean that we are fanatical about Buffy/Angel
But, remember, we are the people who have a FAQ about whether or not we're a cult. We are the people who filk and recap and analyze to bits the ME universes. We can be zealous in our love for the show.
Perhaps that is all Zoe meant.
I'd like to believe that. But why "vengeful," then?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
ok - since no one has answered me, I am moving forward.
What am I, chopped liver?
On edit:
Nice job delineating policies, too. I also think that we should vote on the scope & warning of the warnings, or whether the warnings should been graded for seriousness of offense and things like that.

In Matt's recap, he said:
And by "love," I mean "vengeful zealots."
I can imagine she thought it would be funny and cute.

hayden seconded it before msbelle proposed it! Robert would be rolling over. I also second. Do we need one more?

Another social casualty...
She was quoting Matt's most recent re-cap:
BIG DAMN BAD: My love will follow you wherever you go, Fred. And by "love," I mean "vengeful zealots."

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I'll believe it when she answers Steph's request for clarification.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Er, I'm feeling foolish: I thought we didn't vote on matters relating to Stmpy procedure? Which was why I didn't word the original sketch as a proposal in the first place.
But if we do vote, and msbelle's proposal is legit, then I'll be a second second.
(I would like to amend the Laura-Nutty Warning Boilerplate Language at some later date, but I'll save that for Light Bulb.)
