I can't keep up in Natter, so the discussions there, white-font or not are lost (heh, heh) to me.
None of it means a damn thing.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

What is even happening?
Natter is a great thread for discussion, and even discussion of some shows. It's not a great venue for a long-term, sustained discussion. Also? Knowing some people are bothered by the white font, makes me feel funny posting, but only sometimes.

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

Some people are bothered by everything, though.
Wait, no. I mean, everybody's bothered by something.
You know what I mean.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
So would I be right in saying that the primary reason, right now, for wanting new threads, is to facilitate the discussion about some shows, hopefully without whitefont, instead of the white font in Natter issue?
If so, I would add my voice to those people who want to wait a while before voting in order to see if Lost or the other shows have legs, and sustain a significant amount of interest for a few more episodes.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Just out of curiousity, how many people have been bothered by the whitefont in Natter thus far?
I tend to find the whitefont rather amusing. Even more so for the shows I don't watch.

The whitefont annoys me less than the blackfont on any given topic that annoys me.

I find it ignorable at worst, pretty entertaining at best. Especially the found poetry of the patchwork whitefont.

The issue I have is that some folks are of the position that the white fonted discussions in Natter are a feasible alternative to show-threads. For some of us they are not. I'm lucky if I can keep up in Natter for more than a day...so most discussions there are not something I can participate in. As others have pointed out, there are places like the TV section of TT, or other such forums, but I'd rather stay here. I love the b.org spicy minds.
I absolutely get the idea of waiting to see what shows have "legs", but the "Natter option" is not for everyone.
