| Regarding the fun threads here in Meta....
Hi, guys!
I think this is really amusing, but we moderators have a request. If you're going to post goofy stuff here in Meta, please keep it to just a couple of threads, and come up with some sort of [descriptor] to identify them. As we scan here for problems, it'll make sorting through the fun and the not-so-fun things a lot easier.
I don't care what the [descriptor] is - it could be [monkeys] or [hive mind] or [*whack*] or whatever, but keep it consistent.
Thank you - carry on!
*WHACK*

It's the best descriptor tag. | |

| I kinda liked *whack*, but I guess it could be confusing for Hong.
Hivemind works.

Lets not push our luck by highjacking Piratecats cautionary note though.

| Dear lord... that thread was at 11 pages. ENWorld was down for me for a day. I check in this morning, 7:30 AM PST, and it's at new SACRED THREAD status and closed?
Awwwwww, I missed all the fun!!

I am honored to be a part of the new sacred thread, even if I was asleep while it was achieving holiness.

So everyone can look at the list and find out exactly how much fun we're haing with a glance?
I keep wondering if it was always like this, or I just happened along at the right time.

| It's been spotty, Morrus's ... thread was fun and has since made a comeback, i missed the Sacred thread (Stupid Gen-Con!), and now the big surge over the last couple weeks. I think it's just been a little boring in the industry lately, no big releases or lay offs to get people going.
BTW, i like [Hivemind]. | |
