Talk about spending more time reading than writing. I read both bureaucracies and lightbulb and didn't have a thing to say for all my elevated pulse rate (train wrecks are exciting, even secondhand). I just have to post once to feel like I participated.

I had the same problem in Natter the other day, with the word "schmoopy." Seriously.

Does this word have an offensive origin?

I've pissed off several people (maybe up to 10, but hey, amnesty!) but have, with those exceptions, been, well, maybe not the model poster, but certainly not that bad. , even if I do use runon sentences.

Um, not to beat a dead horse, but somebody recently suspended is dancing around PF, and creating new threads there.

Looks like we're going to need a new Diaspora folder over at PF. Zoe is setting up housekeeping there. It seems that the Buffistas have a politics thread at long last.

I, for one, I'm fine with that, knock yourself out and all that, and there's not really a lot of stuff in that folder. I'm not sure if there are any remedies we could take in any case, other than dragging Lance into it.

Having said that, we probably should contact Lance to find out if there's any way of protecting the Diaspora Natter thread, and any subsequent folders we put up over there.

edit: x-post with Sue.

I don't know if we can suspend users from the PF threads, can we?

I don't think so, unless the folder owner (ita) has powers to do it.

As I said above, I don't have a problem with her frolicking in that particular folder. Now, if she tried the same thing at WX...

Okay, I read some of the posts in her new threads. She's responding to posts in UnAmericans, and she doesn't seem to be very happy with Julie, or the rest of us, for that matter.

I still don't advocate any action, because that way lies becoming like unto vw's bitch troll ex-friends.

Which reminds me -- is VW around? I haven't seen her in a while.

Thanks for doing the dirty work, DX. I'll now be able to keep my blood pressure lower while reading the Buffy posts from last night.

And I am so glad this is OVER. (I hope, for now, fingers crossed, etc.)

Ack, X-post. Maybe someone shoud email Lance about sporking her?

Then again, if what she wants is attention, maybe a studious IGNORE would be best. Don't respond in PF, don't email her, just wait for her to get bored and shut up.
