'First Date'


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!

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

I like the Firefly thread because you all are so up to date on what's happening, so it's a good place for me to know what's happening with the actors / craxy fandom without having to do the research myself. For which there isn't time. Plus, it's how I found the Buffistas. So, I want to keep it.

If we do fold it, I'd like for Firefly stuff to go to Minearverse; I think it's the most appropriate place.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'd like to keep the Firefly thread but I'm OK with not having an assigned Firefly discussion relocation if the thread goes away.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am picturing a new Firefly thread with hardly any posts in it just sitting there forlornly, and it's a sad thought. I'd rather just close it and let the discussion move.

I'm fine with closing Firefly.

I thought rolling it in with Buffy and Angel might be an idea, but I can see lots of reasons why not, and Minearverse makes more sense (I think), and yeah, it's probably best to just let it happen wherever.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I want a dedicated place for Firefly discussion, especially since there are so many poeple here who don't like the show and don't want the discussion cropping up anywhere else. But I don't want a thread to sit there unused. I... don't know what I want.

As I mentioned in Firefly, the thread has not been particularly forlorn, at least as judged by number of posts in the last year. There are many threads here with less in the way of recent activity. It's possible that the last words have been said now and there will be no future discussion. But it will be hard to find out without a thread.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I feel that given the slow pace of the thread over the past year, it's probably best to just let the thread close as normal and have any discussion that follows crop up in Minearverse. If the subject gets a sudden influx of posting, then maybe the possibility of another dedicated thread should be raised in response—but honestly, I don't see that happening.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I propose that we close the dedicated Firefly thread and continue our discussions in the Minearverse thread.

I would amend this to closing the thread when it reaches the post limit.

I don't really see enough discussion to justify a new thread, but I don't feel all that strongly either way.

Assuming we close the Firefly thread when it reaches the post limit:

Why not add Firefly to the Minearverse slug, to complement the mentions of Wonderfalls, the Inside, and Drive that are already there?
