Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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.

My understanding (and it could be wrong) is that spoilers lite (@ WXing) was set up to discuss Spike's soul/human/vampire status, not spoilers. Then, casting spoilers went in there.
I'm pretty sure it was the reverse -- the Spoiled on Spike's Status thread was put into a pre-existing Spoilers Lite folder. The part I can't remember now is whether SL was set up in response to a particular issue, or just because people wanted a middle ground.
The original Torez Spoiler thread was in the main spoilers thread, iirc.
Oh, wait, you mean, like the WorldX organizational structure? I assumed all the spoily threads were in one folder, but apparently not.
Boy, that folder structure really blew, didn't it? Very glad we've got individual-subscribe threads now.

Nope. We had separate Spoilers and Spoilers Lite folders. And while I don't remember all of the details of thread creation, knowing where threads were allows you to extrapolate a fair bit of the history -- SoSS must have come after SL if I'm right that it was in that folder, f'rinstance.

Amen, sistah.
I still think Victor's idea is practical and will make everyone happy. One thread for spoiler-hatas, one thread for those who want to discuss the BCS but no other spoilers ,and one for the spoiler lovers. No One is left out, no one has to accept a compromise, no one has to be spoiled if they don't want to. I am guessing the second thread will get the most traffic until the fall and then it can be folded into the main thread. This way, everyone gets a place to discuss the shows--and we can stop trying to get people to change their individual spoiler preferences, which is hopeless and actually kind of disrespectful.
Hey Scrappy, I didn't see your email. Could you resend to Allyson000@aol.com?
Also, wasn't the point of the thread that it was a Tim thread and not a wonder falls thread (which is why I voted as I did)
This is true. Not a Wonder Falls thread.
Allyson, insent.
So, Tim Minear is a Fluffy Bunny? Minearverse? Minearvana?
Allyson - what do you like for a name?
How about something along the lines of: Beagles, and Schmuck Bait and Scythes... Oh My!
