I tend to cause both of those reactions quite a bit.
I'm kinda like the Hagrid of b.org that way.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

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!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I have a strong opinion about ND.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Only much, much more handsome.
The idea of a Fall TV thread seems like a good idea, on the surface, but I'm not sure how practical it is. It has the potential for causing yet another paradigm shift.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't see a Fall TV thread without a mechanism (which doesn't have to be code -- probably shouldn't).
The idea of putting a radio button for every single show in the thread ... technically it feels like a morass, and culturally ... ick.
Hell, I'm trying to imagine forcibly segregating SGA and SG1 posts -- why would you?

Your tag here.
Ok, I'm withdrawing the suggestion. Further pummelling not required. Carry on, carry on, nothing to see here.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Eddie, thanks for the offer, really. It just doesn't suit our needs, I think.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Offhand, I kind of like the idea of a dedicated place to discuss some of the new stuff out there. But once I think about it, I really can't see a way to do it without it becoming way more trouble than it's worth. The prospect of the spoiler/whitefont discussion alone is giving me hives. And the question of what happens post-thread - either at the end of the fall season or the end of the year, whichever - could be a huge morass.

Yeah, I tend to think if you're going to have this you might as well just have TV Natter and be done with it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Well, what about a TV Natter?
