So long and thanks for all the fish

#auspol's big purple blog has shut up shop again. Enjoy browsing our archives.

Overflow

These threads are set apart for side-discussions and ongoing debates re perennial points of contention, as part of our system for keeping other posts on-topic. News-cycle/churnalism discussion generally belongs here on topics that don’t have their own dedicated threads. Side-discussions which are stoushbait-free are better taken to our Saturday Salon open threads to delight the general readership.
See our Netiquette FAQ for more guidelines.

Overflow Thread

By Cat Herding Cabal on October 21, 2013

So it’s time for another Overflow thread, as part of our system for keeping other threads on-topic. There are Rules here: chatty non-sequiturs/segues belong on our Open Threads, potentially threadjacking tangents belong on Overflow so they don’t clutter up the discourse elsewhere.

Overflow Thread of DOOOOOOOOMMMMM

By Cat Herding Cabal on September 29, 2013

So it’s time for another Overflow thread, as part of our system for keeping other threads on-topic. There are Rules here. DO NOT treat this as an Open Thread – the #overflow has a very separate purpose: set apart for the more contentious side-discussions, to avoid disruptive thread-clutter that discourages other commentors. Off-topic chatty tangents belong on our Open Threads.
