Can't you ever get your mind out of the hellmouth?

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.

Another social casualty...

Cindy, I actually do agree with you. I just thought it was a suggestion that warranted, well, suggesting. As I don't appear to be a target in anything but a general Buffista sense, I'm more or less ok. I'm really concerned for those she mentions by name and want to make sure they are protected (not that they need my protection).

(edited to prove I can type and spell at the same time, even in the morning.)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I agree, Cindy. I think the stuff that she posted earns her the ban.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

But really, can we just delete her user ids forever, here

If we deleted them, she'd be able to reregister with those names. I think you mean keep her ids permanently deactivated, and I agree.

PF may be a little-used last resort contingency forum, but it's still a Buffista Zone. By continuing her obnoxious trolling there, I say she's forfeited her Buffistadom forever.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Would it be possible, feasible, and/or advisable to contact the host of her webpage about the threats contained in her page?

Definitely not advisable. I don't see threats; I see name calling. Even if they were threats, the webhost is like the phone company. They're not responsible. It's also a dangerous precedent. There have been many times when someone here has badmouthed a boss or cow-orker or ex-friend.

Jon, I agree. We may have cross-posted when I responded to Cindy.

Cindy, I have been thinking the same thing about as you regarding making some threads registered Buffistas only. I don't think it's in any way exclusionary. If a lurker wants to see what's going on in Bureaucracy, all they have to do is register. The only intent is to prevent people like vw's ex-friends, or suspended posters from viewing some things that would be best left private. I don't know if it's doable from a technical standpoint, however.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

While we're locking stable doors, can the nearest Stompy please rename me as just "Jim" (if you rename me "JustJim!" I will hunt you down...) I'm feeling a little more identifiable than I'd like to...

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Done, Jim.

(edit: and the new look suits you)
