To the Hivemind

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Work is a problem some days more than others. And I'd gladly lose track of these threads were I actually gaming. My lack of a regular game is actually quite a bit more irksome than my inability to keep up with the Hivemind.

That's sucky, i'd hook you up but it's a long drive from Ithaca to south east Mass.

Yeah, it's a bit of a hike. But I appreciate the thought

I for one am glad we're limiting the Hivemind threads. I have NOT been able to keep up this week.

i saw the title of this thread and thought:

Dear Us,
....How are we...?

After all if too many of us get too silly for too long this may as well be nutkinland.

i don't think so, Eric's grandma doesn't hang out there!

so how do we (the hivemind) decide which threads stay (silly) and which ones don't? (or do we leave that to the mods?)

 

[Jeremy Ackerman-Yost]

I say, silly 'em all and let the mods sort it out

I think it's slowly hitting a point where it happens naturally. Look at the threads that seem to have fallen by the wayside (Crothain/Drivel, Poster of the Inner Circle, and one or two others). We all like the question thread and it's probably going until someone slaps a padlock on it though.

It'll be a combination of self-control and mod's by my reckoning.

I really wanted to get in on the ground floor of that one, but I didn't find it until the end of my coffee break yesterday, and by the time I got back to it to try and actually post, there were like 8 pages. Somewhat discouraging, that

I went to sleep for three or four hours and it suddenly grew ten or eleven pages.

I've decided sleep is a luxury I can no longer afford

it's hard for me sometimes to not interject some humor even when i'm getting to the-question-at-hand.

Canis - if you had read those pages, you should feel free to jump in! not everyone can be on the boards at all times, but just because you missed the start of a thread doesn't mean you shouldn't be there when it gets locked down

 

[arwink]

I think there's a distinction between injecting humor and arriving to high-jack a thread (or a board) whole hog.

Canis - I just found it was easier to start a topic not long after I logged on, then hang around watching it develop. It usualy works right up until Darkness shafts them to General

Besides, it's more fun to come late.
