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?
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?
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."
(Edit: x-post)
I'd like to believe that. But why "vengeful," then?
I'll believe it when she answers Steph's request for clarification.
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.)
Kat, I went and read the rest of the PF posts, and am no clearer than when I began -- it all looks like stream of consciousness gibberish to me. Maybe someone should politely point out that the Angel thread isn't her blog, even when PF isn't being used? I really don't know.
Anyway.
I still think Nutty's system is pretty much the ideal one. I'm against backchannel for this.
hayden, my sweet. No one answered me about where we are, as a community, on taking voting proposals.
You seconded me before I typed up an official proposal. Of coursse, I t heart you for it.
Kat, I'd say no. I'll go re-word if it is a confusing.
I think that how we decide when someone gets a warning/suspension/ban is CLEARLY something that needs a formal discussion and vote. It's not like how we decide when there's a spoiler that needs to be whited out, or how we decide what to name a new thread.
Speaking of which, did we come to some agreement on Bureaucracy 2?
