Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer  

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

When should I take this over to Lightbulb?

When you get four approvals -- how many do you have?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

white-font for one week after original air date.

I really don't like this, because a lot of people watch and post, and come in to work the next morning wanting to discuss something, and if there are 50 new posts of nothing but whitefont, that's a real pain.

We never did it for any of the other show threads -- Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Farscape, Smallville.

But I guess I can take that to Lightbulbs if you're really wedded to the idea.

I'm with you on this, Steph.

Which means you should second the idea, so we have our four seconds, and can take it to Lighbulbs for to discuss.

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

I really don't like the whitefonting for a week -- I think experience has proven that the more we have to step around dates and deadlines and is-it-one-week-or-two and has-it-aired-yet-in-Tucumcari, the less good discussion we get.

People like to watch and post.

People don't like to deal with whitefont.

I say, make it straight-up if-it's-aired NAFDA.

edit: and, I'm x-posty as all hell. Continued in lightbulbs, if we've got the seconds.

Okay, I second it.

Yes, this.

And Tep's second brings it to four: Cindy, me, Plei, Steph.

I'm with Steph and Sean on this. It's why I asked, and I don't really want to second something that has whitefont. We might as well discuss in Natter as have a TV thread, if white font is going to be the case.

I was wary of seconding, but God knows I can argue like a b-i-t-c-a in Lightbulbs.
