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.

Indeed I have. I am for us having a comics thread. I just think we should go through the process, and not just slip it by.
Oh. I thought you meant sneaking with the whole idea, not voting vs. bullshitting. I don't care if we vote or not. I'm not proposing it officially, but I'll gladly second whomever does. Or I'll gladly chip in with the bullshitting. Either way, I am good.
What I (personally) am not good with, is us having a discussion so long and dragged out, that it would have been quicker to vote.
The Minearverse thing was just clarification -- the thread was always to discuss all of Tim's work. Wonderfalls is Tim's work. To me, the comparison would be wanting to discuss the Joss X-Files comics in the Jossverse thread.
I would just as soon leave it as is rather than vote on whether or not to change the slug. People can already discuss non-Jossian comics in there. We do occasionally talk about RPGs and other non-comic stuff (the TotV books).

Yup. The ship has so sailed on it being a Fray thread.
Just catching up with the discussion (take a night off from the internet...)
I'm all for expanding the thread purpose and changing the slug. I've been going back and forth over whether this should be something we vote on, but as I think through the arguments, I realize it won't matter what we do. With Joss writing Astonishing X-Men, volume to the thread is bound to increase no matter what, and discussion of his run will inevitably drag in discussion of other comics. Couple that with a need to find a home for the Bat-discussion, and it is obvious (to me) that nothing we do can probably change that.
I do look forward to quality comics discussion. The "discussion" one sees on comics boards is laughably bad.
You know, I kind of like how 'bats' comes up everywhere.

Bats. Not just for your hair anymore.

Is 'bats' the new black or the new panda?
