Your review	I'm not one to hang out at Sci-Fi conventions, nor have I ever seen Buffy the Vampire Slayer, hence my initial resistance to Will the Vampire People Please Leave the Lobby. But as a veteran of many internet discussion boards, I was not surprised how many times I was nodding my head in agreement. This isn't so much about Buffy as it is how we form relationships online. The bad: trolls, cliques, shunning. The good: an overwhelming sense of community and brining together people who wouldn't have found each other otherwise. It's all there. It's a pretty easy, light read. Something I'd recommend for anyone who's spent even a small amount of time at online fan forums -- of any kind.
