What Hil Said.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I know. I'm just a little iffy on making an official change without going through the procedure we agreed on for making official changes.
Changing the slug doesn't seem like it would warrant a vote to me. Maybe if I saw more objections to the idea, but I haven't yet.

Art Crawl!!!
I like the idea of retaining the name (at least while this thread is still alive) and just changing the slug.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Who knew there would be so many voters in favor of the all gay all nekkid thread?
Ok, if that's what we had gotten in 2000, no one would be mad at your state.

I agree with Hil and Jesse.

Another social casualty...
As others have noted, "Jossverse..." is the de facto comics thread. Earlier today I posted about a non-Jossverse comic being released and felt comfortable doing so because of previous discussions. I think it is totally appropriate to change the title and slug to reflect the more generalized nature of the thread.
For a title I suggest (though it's probably too long): "The Jossverse in Other Media Ultra Super Size Edition! With special guest stars Marvel, DC, and many more!"

I'm not going to throw a huge shitfit about this, but I still think it's a bad idea.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Today, my job annoys me.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I'm all for maintaining precedent, but this isn't really an official change, since there was never an official "limiting."
So: no change in status quo, no need to make it official, IMO.

Oh, natter. It just burst from my soul.
