Thanks so much for counting DX!
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.

Okay, I have carried out the will of the collective for questions 1, 3, 7, 10, and 11, i.e., I have closed Buffista Corp, The Quotable Firefly, Spoilage Lite: Buffy, F2F Planning, and Spoilage Lite: Angel.
Question 2 isn't to be implemented until after the death matches are done.
Questions 5 and 8 are the repurposing of Previously and Spoilers as Angel threads. Do we want to close the old thread, and start a new thread for each to reflect this?
Questions 6 and 9 involve the consolidation of multiple threads, and threads titles and such still have to be worked out.
A total of 123 ballots were cast. Question number 7 may be the first time in recorded history that all Buffistas have been in agreement with each other.
Heh - that was my thought verbatim, as I read the total. I'm tempted to COMM that item.
(and damn that "read new" I posted that in Press at first - yes, I know, the thread name is all over the place: above the posting box, at the top of the browswer window - I need to pay attention)

My opinion:
- No need to close and reopen a new Spoilers, since it's always been Angel inclusive and I assume that there are already lots of discussions about Angel going on there already.
- we should probably close Previously and open a new "Previously on Angel" since that's more of a shift in purpose, but I could go either way.
A slug change for the Previously seems enough in my opinion. Same with Spoilers.
I think you only change the slug in Spoilers and start a whole nother thread for Previously. Mostly because of archiving. Otherwise it would look like there was never a Previously Buffy thread.
I think slug changes on both would be sufficient.
I'd say just change the slugs on both as well.
I just wanted to thank all the folks who hammered out the ballot, put it together, counted, and are going to do all the archiving/changing/consolodating. Y'all rock the party.
DX, you da man.
