Anya ,'Touched'
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Oh, I like the Graduate Studies title.
Would we want a Graduate Studies Spoiler thread? I think our Spoiler Whores will want to continue their wicked ways.
eta: I think this is more housekeeping than thread proliferation, now that I've read Cindy's post. I forgot how many threads were dedicated to Buffy...but if Angel gets renewed, than the Spoiler threads will be kept as is, correct?
Is Jane doing Gilmore Girls, the Jesse spinoff, or both?
Were we thinking just one thread for all the 'graduates' or one per graduate?
I like the idea of starting with just the one thread, spinning it out if specific shows take over the thread.
Quesion -- what will the spoiler rules be? It would be irritating if we had to whitefont pretty much every discussion.
Once everyone sees the finale, there's no need for more than one general Buffy (not General Buffy) thread. I kind of hate to see it all called Previously because of the idea that fiction lives on, and when you refer to a book, you alway say, "the author writes" not "wrote". I'd just like to see it carry on the NAFDA numbering, too, because I'm HAVING A HARD TIME DEALING WITH LETTING GO. *cough*
Plei's right about the hard-core spoilers thread; we won't get rid of that, as long as Angel lives. We'll just change the name. I have no preference as to whether we get rid of the BtVS quote thread or not, but we probably should think about it.
Is Jane doing Gilmore Girls, the Jesse spinoff, or both?
Both.
I think that if it has aired, we shouldn't need to white-font. It'll get too complicated otherwise.
t edit Thanks Allyson.

Word.
Yes a Graduate NAFDA thread with no whitefonting.
Another problem is that this could end up being a general teevee thread, and I believe there was great resistance to that.
Eh. I'm neutral on the idea of a general TV thread, but a "we can have threads for TV shows if ME people work on them or there's HoYay! involved" policy strikes me as unfair. ISTM that about as many Buffistas watch Alias as watch Gilmore Girls -- why should it be okay to discuss one here and not the other? (And what if Jane moves on midseason? Would we have to close the thread?)
Also, what about actors' projects, like the new Eliza Dushku series? Okay to discuss, or no?
Depending on the US and Canadian broadcast schedules for Angel (may it air forever, or at least a couple of more seasons), we might be able to close Atlantic Canadian Monday Madness, too.
Trying again. Up for closure/merger into one general Buffy thread are:
Also potentially on that list are:
QUESTION: Do Un-Am's want to keep the Firefly spoilers thread? It seems to me they could use the NAFDA thread when they want to discuss spoilers. Do NAFDA types need it until the DVDs come out, to discuss unaired episodes?
