I thought that's what they WERE -- suggestions. I wasn't aware that theming thursday was mandatory.

I've found, with very limited exceptions, that this is indeed the case. When dealing with a group this large, issues can arise. My policy, however, is to generally let things take their own course.

Unless, of course, they denigrate even further, in which case I'm definitely not hesitant to invoke the titanium-plated drill-bit of common courtesy (as I believe any of the regulars (and even some of the not-so-regulars) can likely attest to).

True, it may be limiting. However, without following a theme of one form or another, the shows can (and likely will) turn into little more than a three hour request block. Not something I'm interested in supporting.
