Heh. I hope we archive the current Angel thread in time for the lexicographers to stumble upon the Doppelkäts defense of "verbize."
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

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.

Thrive to spite them
I voted as soon as the announcement was made in Press, am I going to have to vote again?

Thanks for all the fish.
I think that everyone who voted before Jon posted the second notice in Press needs to vote again.
Is that right?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Yes.

If I only had a brain...
I think the idea was to use threads that were already archived at the time the proposal was made, so as to avoid self-consciousness. No?

Yes. No thread stuffing of "foamy" and the like.

Yes. No thread stuffing of "foamy" and the like.
Good thing "porn" is already a word then, given how some of the old threads got "porn"-ed to the max.

Just the old ones?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, no one's fighting for the porn count crown anymore.

Oh! I misunderstood. I totally forgot about the porn count and Holli's sneaky whitefont.
I thought he just meant the old threads were very porny, implying that the new ones aren't.
Pay no attention to the Teppy behind the curtain.
