Yeah, I'd say (a) read new, (b) message center, (c) front page, (d) combination, (e) wtf? Or similar.

it was bad; it might have been Latin.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ann, that's a ferret.
megan got the basic idea of my comment. "should we" separates those who'd be willing to do some fine tuning from those who think it's broken.
Inviting people to offer specific issues would help set a framework for any discussion, but I can see keeping it simple and waiting until we decide to have a discussion before getting to any issues.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I saw Message Center and Clicking thread as the same, but we can clarify that.
thanks.

Thanks msbelle. I see them as separate because of the limited list I am picking from. With subscriptions you can shape what you want to view and then ignore the rest of the board - even if you don't mean to. It can make it easy to forget there ARE other threads out there.

This is the only question I had an issue with, since I'd rather see the different options people choose. I'm thinking along the lines of, the options could be a, b, and c as you've written them, and then d could be "none of the above" or "other" (with a textbox to explain?), and then allow people to choose more than one option.
I agree with this. If there's a way to show the percentage of voters for each of these options (and allow people to choose more than one), that would be great.

Thank you so much to those working on the poll.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Hey, this is great! Thanks to those of you who worked on this. And the notes others have made are good as well.

In particular, this, because I know I would choose more than one.

Hey, only a little over 100 posts left in Bitches. Anybody got anything for 37? Any Spike quotes that mention "prime"?
DCJensen - Aug 03, 2007 10:30:25 am PDT #749 of 6786
All is well that ends in pizza.
In about 100 posts, or so, Bitches will need a new thread.
Here are some proposals:
Spike's Bitches 37: Yeah, I've got an unlife, you know!
Spike's Bitches 37: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else.
Spike's Bitches 37: I think I'm sobering up. It's horrible.
Spike's Bitches 37: Sodding, blimey, shagging, knickers, bollocks, oh God! I'm English!
And, even if it is Giles...
Spike's Bitches 37: Welcome to the Nancy tribe.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Didn't we use numbers 2 and 3 already? They look familiar. Maybe they were only proposed and not used.
