Trudy---personally I don't like Ikea, but I realize that a lot of people who participate in the threads do like it.

However, I'm just upset that people who have nothing to do with our subcommunity, no matter how small, got to decide it's fate, and now we may not even get over ruled in the name.

I have a potentially kerfuffle-inducing question: but I feel like I have to ask:

Will the FAQ spoiler policy be in place for the combined Smallville/Due South/SG-1/Farscape thread?

Because I'm all about the Smallville spoiler ho'ing and in that thread whitefonting even major spoilers (which for Smallville is so an oxymoron, but that is another conversation entirely) is OK.

Just curious, I'm fine if whitefonting is outlawed for that thread.

Again. I'm not best pleased with some of the vote outcomes. But surely, askye, you aren't saying, as your last three posts seem to suggest, that this one "subcommunity" should have an autonomy and self-governance that other threads don't have? Because that's a dangerous precedent to contemplate.

We've been employing the whitefront for future spoilers, but for episodes that are aired there's no whitefronting necessary, save the east coast-west coast time difference.

If I can get four seconds, I can propose tomorrow that we change our name from "The Buffistas" to "Toe Jam".

Seconded.

I believe we'd decided to go with a non-whitefonting policy, but I could be recalling incorrectly.

I like Nutty's proposal. Not too dense to be followed, and no Ikea in evidence.

For the record, I don't watch Smallville and don't intend to. I will read the combined thread and skim what doesn't interest me, just as I do with other threads here. And yes, I voted for the combined thread in the interest of conserving board resources.

I said the Ikea bit and I wouldn't use it as a title. If I were me. Which I am. So I guess I mean if I were queen of the momemt. Which I'm not.

Anyway,

I like SouthSmallScape: A discussion of DS/SV/FS or something like that. Cause it's obscurish but clearish at the same time.

I don't think labelling it directly as a "Combined TV fandom" is a good idea because it's way too general.

I'm sorry that people don't like the result of the voting on this one. And yet, 55 people liked it enough to vote for it.

I'd say whitefont for spoilers but not recently broadcast info. There should be a warning in the slug that recently broadcast stuff is NOT whitefonted.

edited for parallelism.

Beverly--no. I guess I'm just still thinking of a hold over because we pretty much named PPO, Due South, Bitchy Fic, etc by ourselves when it was over at Worldcrossing and seperate from the main Buffista board.

Also, I guess I'm confusing naming the whole thread with thinking up thread titles.

What about DueSmallScape?

DueSmallScape?

Also good for me. As would a play with SouthScapeVille or DueScapeVille or FarSouthVille. Or pretty much any sort of combo-y title.
