Glory ,'Potential'
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.

People will miss the sense of community offered by other boards.
I get that, but will they come to discuss the show that's gone, or find a community for whatever new show strikes their fancy? Not that I have any idea what that show would be. If it's Tim's show, I can certainly see it happening here, in exactly the same manner that the Firefly thread took off.
Another thought that just oozed out of my brain is that we may see an increase in traffic. Word on the street is that some boards will close up shop, and so there will be hordes of pilgrims looking for a new home this Summer.
Time to plan some hazing rituals for the newbies. Suggestions?

They'll be looking for places where there seems to be a common bond in that this is a community built on Buffy. I sort of anticipate the sort of groundswell that happened to the Beta when the UPN board closed. It was chaos for a wee bit.
Although, if the Beta stays open, I'm thinking that it will attract a lot more folks than Buffistas will. This is a more demanding board.

They have to read every single post from B'cry 1 and then pass an essay quiz based on the answers they don't find.
Atlantic Canadian here. I think the only people I would discuss closing our thread with are other Atlantic Canadian posters and admin people. It shouldn't be a global discussion.

Okay there's hazing, and then there's torture.

Leave it to a lawyer to point out the difference.

Interesting. Why shouldn't it be a global discussion?
