Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

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.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I think that, especially now that we're in a new quotables thread (so it's at the bottom of the subscription list), it is good to have the press posts. Otherwise, hitting "read new", you don't get to quotables till you're caught up in Bitches/Natter.

Or, to not speak for people not me, replace 'you' with 'me'.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

IIRC, we've only got two more characters to deathmatch once the current Spike round is done, so it's not like this is going to be an ongoing thing.

Also, feeling INCREDIBLY stupid and slow here, but who is Frankenbuddha?

Ah. Duh. And thanks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

especially now that we're in a new quotables thread (so it's at the bottom of the subscription list)

It's only at the bottom of the index page if there are no recent posts. Threads with the newest posts go at the top. If you're seeing it at the bottom -- that's your first sign that there's no deathmatching.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, but it comes up last if you use Read New.

I have no opinions on any current issues, by the way.

Thanks for all the fish.

I thought that Read New would bring up the thread that had the most recent post, time-wise?

I must be forgetting the code. It used to be that recency determined the order things came up with Read New too.

I'll have to go look.

Really? Huh. I'm pretty sure that's not my experience. For instance, Un-American or Jossverse in Other Media consistently come up first for me if there are any new posts there.
