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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

What do people think about either adding a comics thread, or expanding the Jossverse thread to include other comics?

Yeah, the batfam discussion could use a home. Or we could just designate Jossiverse in other media, since it is the de facto comics thread.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I was just thinking this, but was loath to propose yet another thread.

I'd be down with expanding J'verse.

It'd mean containing myself... but hey, worth a shot.

What is even happening?

Would the Jossverse in Other Media thread mainstays object to a redefinition of that thread? Is it a sub-community, or are there erm...problems about which I can't hypothesize because I know nothing about what I'm trying to discuss.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Would expanding a thread to include something new require a discussion and voting or could it be bullshit consensus?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'd be fine with a true consensus (vs. a bullshit one). That is, if no one objects, I don't think we need to vote.

Well, and here I had my heart set on a bullshit one.

Would we change the name? Jossverse in Other Media, Now With 33% More Comic Talk?

Jon, do you post there, much? If so, do you want to mention this discussion in the Jossverse thread?

I need a new tagline.. submissions are accepted.

It looks like it would be a popular topic considering the current discussion in Minearverse. I believe in reading some of this thread the last few days topic proliferation is a concern and since sadly I don't read Jossverse yet so I can't have an option yet on if more topics should be added there or not. (Adding a new thread to my message center every few days)

I think all five of us in that thread have been here.

There's a lot of other comics talk in there. Always has been.
