Ever get the feeling she's replying to things we can't see?
I think someone mentioned that at least one of the things she quoted and replied to had originally been posted here.
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.

Cindy misspelt "as she could be, and then you should see the bits she cut out".
I was being discreet (not discrete). :) Also, my "as possible" was short-hand for "way frigging more polite than I could have been".
Also? You used elephants. What's not to love? I was going to ask if they were juggling SMGs, but I didn't think it was the time.

She's a loon, but she's got to burn herself out and get bored eventually. I think she's fairly contained there for a while.
Perhaps. I'm more worried about what happens if Phoenix goes down and we need somewhere to go. We can't go straight into WX can we? Doesn't it have to be unlocked first.
The posts and the linked thing really creep me out.
Well bureau is opened on WXing, because we're supposed to be over there talking about that stuff.
Victor---one of the posts in Buffy quotes a line from one of my posts.
She quotes Matts the Bruins fan.
In the "political" thread she's quoting posts from UnAmericans.
Her posts there look pretty much like her posts here would if she were to quote and post something.
I think she's reading along and posting. I know what her post about Culloden happened pretty soon after the last Buffista post she quoted.

I'm working on recreating the basic folders/discussions in an area we can more tightly moderate.
Cool. And, I appreciate that ita. I was just saying that even if the burnout begins to occur as victor suggested, if we had to go over there, we'd ignite the fire again.
Also way creeped. But I have confidence that the power of Buffistas will prevail.
I learned something from Wolfram today - I can see how I was doing the same thing but on a lesser scale.
[ETA I'm for announcing the ban in Press, then never speaking of it again.]
{{{wolfram}}} even though you're gone.
whistling merrily, hauls childhood blocks down from the attic and sets about rebuilding Buffista social capital.
Fay Jay and amyth, belated thanks for the hugs.
I say ban her in press.
I would've liked to know that Zoe was suspended before I had to read through UnAmericans last night. I responded to some things thinking it was an open situation. Now that everyone's been in and asked, I don't know what good posting in Press would do.
Actually, I think that Wolfram has always been one of the most composed and level-headed (when it comes to tone) posters that I have read.
Maybe this explains why I'm a fan. (You'll notice I'm not that big on the personal revelations either.) I respect a distanced and professional tone in Bureaucracy. To me, it's a way to gather social capital with one hand while you spend it on promoting change with the other.
I'm liking that social capital metaphor, because you can acknowledge that people have different levels of clout without drawing a line that separates the cool kids from the rest.
