You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

And the bad guys always wear black hats . . . .

If user X decides to filter user Y, would user Y know? What if user Y asks user X a question, and then 20 posts later Y is all, "I ASKED YOU A QUESTION, X - WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?" OK, that's an extreme example....

Not that extreme: the forums my DH spends much of his time on have a user filter option, and that very thing has happened several times.

I'm sorry that we need it, I can see why some people find it necessary if they're going to keep their heart valves intact, and thank you to the good folk coding it. That's all, really.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My "remember me" and "show email address to registered users" settings both got mysteriously changed to "No" sometime after late last night. Anyone else notice anything weird?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

This happened to me once, too.

When I updated my profile to subscribe to a new thread, "remember me" got mysteriously unchecked.

However, this morning, when I subscribed to the new natter, it remembered to remember "remember me".

What is even happening?

Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.
Anya, 'Checkpoint'

Is this quote coming up really frequently for anyone else? I haven't tracked it, but I'm seeing it more than a couple of times a day. Didn't that sticky quote problem get fixed, or am I misremembering?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Is this quote coming up really frequently for anyone else?

I don't know about that one specifically, but is the pool very low? Like, maybe only in the few dozen? Because I think I saw them all after a few days. Is there a place to submit more? There are very few for Angel, and none for Firefly.

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

There are 280 quotes. Sean is in charge of formatting more and getting them to me. So you can go through him.

Actually, I was thinking about that again recently. What I need is for people with quote lists to email them to me, so I can prepare them for entry.

I think it was.... Plei had Angel quotes, Elena had Buffy quotes, and Nilly had Firefly quotes?

And how far into Angel are we allowed to quote?

NAFDA, Sean. So up to the end of S4.

Oh! I vote we throw in Wonderfalls, the aired 4.

I even have three of the four on tape, to pick quotes from myself.
