Carry on.
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Another social casualty...
I suggested (from "Players") Angel 3: It's not like the last time, huh, Monkey Boy?
(Please let me know if I should whitefont any of the above.)

Wolfram--I want to clarify my prst by saying I was attempting (and not very well, apparently) to describe how your suggestions FEEL, not claiming that you actually said any of those things. For my part, I want to assure you that you are welcome to suggest anything, any time. I was under the impression that we were talking about why people didn't respond (lack of context, social capital, disimissing board history, etc) to your suggestions--NOT that we were saying that you shouldn't feel free to make them.

Hi. This is a great discussion, everyone, really - it's nice to see the thread working well!
I missed, though, where/why Zoe got banned. Was it for the PF posts? Could I bother someone to recap? Maybe Nilly it? Thank you!

Our wings are not tired.
Michele, I think the last straw was her insulting several members in the Buffy thread prior to the watch 'n post. Misspelling names on purpose and ignoring requests for civility.

Was it for the PF posts?
I think so. Since PF is a Buffista zone, posting there after being suspended was the same as if she'd tried to post here under a different name.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
It was the PF posts, especially the one referring to Julie.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Yeah, the suspension was for insulting Darth and Suela in the Buffy thread, the ban was for her continuing to insult people (comparing Julie to the Gnarl demon, etc) in our PF forum after she could no longer post here. (She added a "chat" thread in the Diaspora folder there which she's been using to respond to posts made in the show and UnAmerican threads here for the past couple days.)

Oh, OK, thanks.
Then I do agree with those who say (a) we should be explicit about WX and PF being off-limits too in the future, so no one can ever claim righteous ignorance, and also (b) threats of violence against other Buffistas on Buffista boards should lead to some sort of automatic sporking, no questions asked.
