You know what was in Matt's photo (in natter) that I didn't know was there? A lurker!
Which is all my way of saying that lurkers have joined muffaletta and cilantro in my mind (i.e., delicious!). A strange bone of contention that goes nowhere. It's not like there's some action we're talking about right now.
We don't do anything willy nilly. We're incapable.
No actions, just shooting the "who we are and why I need to state my opinion for no apparent reason other than to watch myself type" shit. That's what I'm doing, anyway.
Wait, is everyone else serious?
Heh.
We don't do anything willy nilly. We're incapable.
See above for extension of the discussion period for connie's vote.
I'm not judging the call--just describing it as ad hoc and not de jure.
I'm thinking that we'd not let something like that happen. If enough people who actually post the entertainment felt the board was starting to blow, we'd make whatever changes were necessary to keep us together and afloat.
I couldn't agree with this more.
But I stand by my point. Members are members, and the distinction between a registered poster's vote and a registered non-poster's vote should always stand.
But I agree with this too. At the risk of sounding like an utter sap, I have to quote Churchill: "It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried."
In general, lurkers are pretty nice to me in email, though none have supported my statement that they only get one third a vote, and not even the bullshit promise of 40 acres and a mule.
Yet.
No actions, just shooting the "who we are and why I need to state my opinion for no apparent reason other than to watch myself type" shit. That's what I'm doing, anyway.
Oh, so you've been to bureau before.
Oh, so you've been to bureau before.
Yup. But curiously, I've never been to me.
Don't make me propose a thread discussing all ita, all the time, called, "Jamaican Me Crazy 1: A discussion of how wrong ita is."
How badly will I be harmed if I second this proposal?
