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.

FWIW, I moderate a forum equivalent to Bureaucracy on another board, and I think this one runs just fine.
Things are discussed ad infinitum, but I think that's a strength of this board. If it were run by fiat (even group fiat) it would run smoother, but we'd be trading away a lot of what makes Buffistas Buffistae.
t Running in to grab Buffistae ass during the group hug.
It would have to be an Abelian group, as most of us would need to commute.

I do think this thread has been much quieter because we did work our way (painfully, but thoroughly) through some of the larger issues.
Agreed. Definitely painful at times, but I think we've gotten a much better sense of how we want things to work, and can apply that to a lot of other stuff that's come up since then, without having to go through the same types of arguments each time. (I'm trying to figure out a way to say what I mean here without using the word "isomorphic," and I'm failing. There's got to be some word that means "having the same structure" that isn't quite so math-centric, right?)
analogous
Yes. Thank you. (Trying to figure out that word would have bothered me all night.)
groan
Finally, someone appreciates my work!
I want baby eating in the thread title.
Or advance does Yoda.
Whatever. But not spaz, please-- it's one thing for Bitches to be reclaiming the word Bitch, but I don't get the same positive sense from the use of spaz. In the thread, one thing; in the title, another.
So I'd like
the softer side of Yoda eating babies,
instead.
"Who said that? ME. Who? ME!"
I love this one.
me too, aurelia. that's my vote.
don't know where my caps went.
