I think we just need a thread that says: ITA IS A GODDESS AND HOSTILEROCKET CAN BITE OUR VIRTUAL ASSES.
Or words to tthat effect.
Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Not a thread. How about a taking out a banner ad somewhere?

I like the threat of legal action. Heck, I like the actuality of legal action. Dammit, this is precisely the sort of situation where a bunch like Wolfram & Hart would be perfect.

TWOP - I mean all the banners are doing it these days.
A full page ad in Variety would be a bit much, wouldn't it?

Far too much. Plus, the wrong audience.
Plus, er, I was kidding.

Oh, so was I. But the thought was funny. And it's the thought that counts (or something).

I'm not kidding, but I can afford neither lawyers nor ads in Variety.

Oh, I'm still all for "Still Flying". That's why it was Firefly 5 and not Firefly 3.
I'm gonna be contrary, and admit I don't like "Still Flying." Because it's not, and I'm still bitter.
They're still traversing the skies in the UK, and a shiny new rocket is under construction. That's flying in my book.

Firefly 3: Too Damned Pretty to Die?
Ooh, this I like.
As far as legal action goes...eh. Given the amount we're talking, which would be the price of the semi-dedicated server for the brief time we used it, I think it'd be more trouble than it's worth. As far as the data goes - as far as I understand, you can't recover on something that doesn't have any monetary value. Unless you're suggesting they could be made to restore whatever was lost - assuming they can even do so.
Some strongly worded communications with the BBB and any sites that provide info on hosting services would be a better route, I think.
