@Mr. Pole You're in on this thing too right? You and @GoSpuffy are really in love right?😉

And no I don't buy it can't be an April Fools because of it staring yesterday and didn't end today at midday. That's the perfect cover!😀
 
I hate all things Spuffy. I am in on nothing. If this is a joke it's news to me.

Now it's possible GoSpuffy loves me but it is not reciprocal.
(unless there would be some money in it!)

I'm sad to read people will be leaving! Even though I'm new, I will miss hearing everyones opinions. Hopefully you all miss discussing btvs so much that you come back, Spike or no😉

Nice to meet you - and sorry, but you actually won't be hearing everyone's opinions if certain subjects are censored.

Buffy Summers, the ball is in your court. Do you want to settle for just half measures, or are you bad enough to say, "My way or the highway," to every shipper on your Board?

Kill em all - burn the house down while we're in it? 😀

Ships aren't the problem. Just Spike fans. That's why it wasn't isolated to just ships. Spike threads are gone. Has nothing to do with shippers.

Mr. Pole said:
It's just too bad the Spike fans cant be as polite to others as others are to them or they would still have threads to post in... in a day or two I doubt anyone will be crying over Spike being banned at all. He'll be forgotten that quickly.

Mr. Pole said:
Wow. So you are more of a fan of Spike then of the show? I mean, it's only one little character. He's not even one of the core four.

Mr. Pole said:
It's not censorship. It's rules. The rules are no more Spike threads because people tend to argue. Would you rather see the whole forum devolve into arguments?

(I would insert a smiley but I find them to be confrontational sometimes rather than funny... didnt want there to be any mistaking intent)

Oddly enough, I don't think that mistaking your intent is going to be a problem.🙄
Let me make sure I get the logic here - Spike fans are the problem on the board. The only way to save the board from devolving is to get rid of all Spike threads. You almost make me want to stick around to see how often Spike can be added to other threads.😀

I'm a Rebel, like Spike. Recognized and sanctioned? Where's the fun in that? You joined the wrong house. Leave black thorn immediately before you embarrass us all.

Yeah - he's an Uncle Tom! An embarrassment to the house. I believe that means we can use sharp implements and fire once he goes back inside.

I don't think Spike's name will ever be totally gone from a Buffy board and nor should it. Just like Angel's name shouldn't.

Well, good.. if it's hot I know it's a real spike and not a peroxide Spike as that is anything but hot.

More than April's Fool, this seems more like a test of some sort. Anyway, if the talking has been banned, the forums are still floating around. And I was wrong - if Spike isn't a subject people can talk about, I think Spike's fans aren't the ones who will lose more... so, as balance is everything (ask Whistler), the Spuffy club has been banned too.

so I can't see any connection between a decision to remove and forbid all Spike threads and an argument about Faith. Please explain the connection.

I connection wasn't made by me, it was made by some other poster who ranted about how it was her fault and that anti-Spuffies should be happy now.
She then went on to try and blame me for it - actually posted a screen-shot of me commenting on her arguing with the mod. It was sad.

As I recall, you're an avid fan of Faith, and have argued with the occasional moderator

But I wasn't involved here and I have never argued back to a moderator. The poster was making derogatory comments about ALL Faith fans- which sounds like something you should be against since you've complained in the past about all Spike-fans being so broadly attacked in such a way.


Anyway, if the mods delete my post or tell me to cut it out I apologise to them and then stop, at least strongly attempt to stop, and succeed mostly. I certainly don't get confrontational with them like some.
So no, I've never argued with the mods that way- I just don't see the point since they run the site for the good of everyone. If they call me out then I was almost certainly doing something wrong and should stop. Simple.

lol where the hell have I been, I missed this whole argument about Faith
I hope this is an April Fool's Joke.

If it's not...@Buffy Summers, I'll be honest, that's pretty unfair. While I agree that board members fight about Spike a lot, he is certainly not the only character that inspires heated discussion and argument. Why single out Spike and Spuffy?

This just seems like a way to alienate Spike fans and Spuffies from the board, which doesn't seem like something that would be in your best interest.

Seriously, guys? Of COURSE this was April Fools! A Buffy board without Spike threads would be ridiculous!

Happy April 1 everyone 🙂

Playing with fire but it's been amusing and I applaud your bald approach to April fools day.

I didn't think it was serious at all because the idea is so ridiculous but the longer you left it with the bile in here it seemed slightly more possible.

I hope everyone can take a deep breath, have a bit of a laugh and start fresh tomorrow.
 
I have a whole list of work to-do things and then at the bottom I have placed... make Jandy banner.. Thats when you know you really need a break from the ole BB.
