'Destiny'
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 generally like the quarterly episodes of "how I feel about this board"
Well, and I think "who we are" and "who are we" are looming large in people's minds with the last few Angel's coming down the pike and Wonderfulls getting lousy ratings, consciously or not. I know it's been on my mind, but I haven't had any major breakthrough on how I feel about the future of the buffistas.
It's just about impossible not to be paranoid about that, but I think 99.999999999...% of the time, that's just quirky random timing.
It's not paranoid if they really are out to get you...

Oh, I'm sure it's just random, Sean.

And there are thread subcultures. I often feel thin-air-ish in the Movie and Music threads. No big whoop -- I don't post much in either of those threads, know my taste and experience are different from the "norm" of the thread, etc. And god forbid you only have five minutes in Natter -- that's a sure ride to the thin air feeling -- you have something to say, it's not what the current conversation is about, and then you have to leave before you get a chance to catch the topic. It's no one's fault, it just is -- really the only way to "fit in" is to spend a lot of time interacting, not just posting.
Also, agreeing with what everyone is saying about talking-to-thin-air. I'm always worried that I've ended up on people's personal twit filters, but I get over it.
edited to add a wandering "on".
I know you're talking about me in email now, damn the lot of you.
Don't worry Sean, it's just the lurkers.

You're good with the Lurkers, Shawn!
Shawn and ?? posted this upthread and it pretty much covers my feelings on the topic, LJ.
I'm the ??, Lexine.
That sentence works in so many ways... heh.

Hee. Poor Sean.
