New P&C Coming This Weekend!

Hey everyone!

Months ago we'd collectively had a big, long talk about this section of the site, what we hope to get out of it and how things could be better. We've been working on a new CoC and some special structural changes to P&C since then and we're finally ready to roll them out (assuming nothing blows up).

We'll go into more detail once everything is going and you can actually see it. Don't worry, it won't look massively different, but thread authors will be able to set their intentions a bit better when they create a new one.

One thing that will be relevant to everyone is part of the new setup will be locking ALL existing P&C threads so new ones can be made within the new structure.

This is not an invitation to start posting nonsense in existing threads. Try and contain that to this one

Gotcha! Just this one

Unlike the restructuring happening at my workplace, this is exciting and welcome news. Looking forward to it!

Thank you for the time and effort Certis.

One day, or day one?

Out of date but still shockingly relevant

Bingo!

I really want to hit the report button on Norman's post for laughs, but I don't know if the mods will see it and find it funny as intended, or if it will be a headache for them. So I can't.

in the new P&C, all posts will have a 'Report Norman' button.

Spoiler:

too much? meant 100% good-naturedly, but if too far, will delete & apologize

All cheeze posts will have a button that automatically deletes his post and replaces it with "Edit: On second thought, might be taken the wrong way."

Nonsense.

I'm kinda hoping the new P&C is like Snapchat for arguments.

I've long wondered if the conversation would be greatly improved or greatly worsened by all posts being anonymized for the reader. (Which isn't like Snapchat, but Snapchat's definitely an interesting model, too.)

I don't think it would help cheeze much

Heck, I tried and Sally could still recognize me by my writing style ; D

Gotta replace that Free Space now though.

Or... maybe wait until after the election...

I retrospect, I should have pm'd you and allowed you your anonymity. Sorry for that.

Wow, I think we're close to Bingo. I just need OG and Certis to do their thangs.

Edit: Zombie Scalia!

Instead of updating the bingo card I'll probably just make some Hearthstone cards for the new forum.

That's one way to get on Certis' bad side...

Hey, no worries man--probably for the best, anyways. : )

As long as this remains an activist space I'm in.
