So, ummm, last July I went to Portland for this "Metafilter anniversary gathering" thing, and I got Jessamyn to autograph one of those nifty teal Metafilter shirts. However, my life will not be complete until I somehow coerce the other admins to sign it as well. I'm just waiting for the proper venue. So, how about it? Are going to have another anniversary gathering this year or what?

How about a Craigslist-type subsite for MeFi members?

After I read
this article today about Yahoo Answers, I realized that I've never actually spent any time on there. For those who have - how does it compare with our site?

Is there a reason that we're allowing the

Is there a way to re-open the
Mefi Anniversary Meetup Thread for comments? I wanted to see if anybody else would like to get together on Thursday or Friday night, as I'll be making it a 4-day weekend.

I noticed that the meetup mentioned in
this thread has made the 'gatherings' sidebar. (I'm assuming that the meetup will take place this year, and not in 2009, as suggested.) In the thread, there weren't many details regarding a place or a time. Has any of this been decided yet? Not to make like Mother Superior and jump the gun, but if this thing is really happening, I want to buy my plane tix pretty soon.

Ok, this one's a bit of a long shot. A while back, somebody posted a comment to a MeFi thread that contained a textfile the effect of "12 Reasons Why Nobody Responded to Your Post." I believe that this textfile was pretty old and came from either the Usenet or Listserv community. Anyway, I found it to be really witty and insightful, and was wondering if anybody here knew more about the origin or location of this textfile.

I know this has been brought up before, but I believe that it's frustrating enough to deserve being brought up again. Why is the wiki so spam-ridden?
Every time I go to look at it, at least 75% of the things I click on are spam or "DeletedPage: This page was WikiSpam. "
Seriously, If nobody's going to put in the effort to keep the wiki spam-free, why even bother to have it, especially now that we have a FAQ?

Just out of curiosity - Were you a BBSer? Did you run a BBS?

Ok, so I'm guessing that we should add
building implosions to the list of "things we can't talk about on Metafilter?"

After no small amount of careful consideration, I have come to the conclusion that is patently silly to correct your own typos from earlier in a thread. You can all stop doing it now. Thank you.
[more outside]
Seriously. If what you meant in the first place is still quite obvious in spite of the typo, you're really only drawing my attention to it by correcting yourself.

Question about MeFi Projects - Is it acceptable to post an
idea for a project in the hopes that others will be interested and want to help out? Or is MeProj just for projects that are already in progress?
