Buffistas

You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I strongly prefer the filk version on top. We run the risk of taking ourselves too seriously, and the filk avoids that. But as always, if the community rules, I will happily abide.

I think it's just that there were no doors to lock there. If I suddenly lost access to a board I posted on daily, I'd be running around looking for somewhere to leave my digital trail, too.

insent, ita.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

She's also got our logo on her site now. Just FYI.

Our wings are not tired.

Jess, I know it is upsetting, but a)We can't really do anything about it and b)Do you really think her site gets much traffic?

I know, and no, Laura. And I'm sure we don't have any kind of legal rights to the logo (and even if we did, copyrighting images on the internet's pretty much a lost cause), I just hate seeing our name used that way.

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

Actually, we do have legal rights to the logo. Copyright basically goes like this: You made it, it's yours. It's just that such things are a huge pain in the ass to enforce.

I understand. Truly at this point it is just sad. The kind response is probably to ignore such cries for attention. t /mother

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I'm getting a Single White Web site vibe out of this whole situation.

I guess it would be cruel to COMM that, but, dude. With the laughing.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I'm sure that Zoe is still reading here and probably getting a huge rush out of the fact that we are still posting about her even after suspension and banning. By all means, let's create a new space for Buffistas at PF and guard the space we have at WX. I'm all for posting something brief and to the point in Press informing that she has been banned. And then, please, can we drop this? She's gone. I don't care what she does on her site or the vacated PF sites. Let's just stop talking about her. Pretty please.

Now tagless for your comfort.
