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.

Hmm. Is "I'm staying the hell out of it" too strong a statement?
This probably belongs in Light Bulbs, but I'm not subbed there, and I'm not going back.
Personally, I kind of like dealing in absolutes. It makes things clear, and no one has to run around in circles figuring out what the policy is. I like that we have a policy, because it's obvious that for every ten people, you'll have fifteen ideas of what constitutes a spoiler.
I dislike the somewhat exasperated sense that I sometimes get from the spoiled towards those of us who like to remain utterly virgin, as much as possible.
Hell, I even find it kind of silly that we have this much debate when we have a full-out spoiler thread, a Spoilage Lite, and a quick-edit for spoiler font.
WRT the whole grandfathered issue? I'm staying the hell out of it.
Dana, I do so very much adore you. And I respect you so much.
I'm gonna sit in the corner with Dana.
Still room in that Corner?
I have a corner? Who knew?
Can someone give an example of a prior spoiler policy? Anyone? Bueller?
No need for the snotty tone, Trudy. We have had pretty much the same spoiler policy always -- we just never practiced what we preached. Giles going off contract was never on-the-WB, but we all talked about it long before the next season began. Same with Fred and Gunn becoming contract players.
Can you please remove your very large from the thread
Still catching up on context. This is very cute without context. Perhaps I can stay blissfully context-free? No, I thought not.
There's also a missing word, which removes sense even when in context.
FWIW, Nutty, I did not take Trudy's comment as snotty - I thought it was using humour to defuse.

Nutty, I thought the same as Elena. I don't think Trudy came across as snotty.
