Dammit, I just realized this means no more backrubs from Nathan Fillion and Simon Pegg!

Oh, I wouldn't worry about that.  You still do much that's appreciated around here.  You do most of the routine thread maintenance, keep us in line, stop the anti-Christ from banning us when we get a little giddy in McAnally's, (and no, I don't mean Fred), update us on what JB's doing, the timeline, correct obvious errors in some of the threads, and just generally respond to irrelvenant and impertinant PM's.  You deserve those backrubs.

Maybe Helen took a nap? :D 

HEY!  I just figured out what this meant.  Now I'm getting Mod Abuse?

Yes, sometimes I'm slow.  My excuse is I literally had gotten up from a nap when I read it.  Not enough sleep over the past few weeks.  And no, MSD, not because I'm posting.

Never Mod Abuse!  Only Mod Love.  And maybe Mod Jokes At Beloved Members' Expense.  But mostly Love. <3

It's OK, I love you too.  At least you've never started a thread whose only function was to embarrass and abuse me.

Since this is the offical area of the site, I'm merely going to suggest you bite me, with a date and location to be determined later.  OK?

Maybe because I live in Miami and spend a lot of time in Gardening.  Umm...Gardening?

And no, as the injured party, I get to pick.

OK.  I didn't start these threads, so you don't get to ban me over them.  Deal?

OK, this is yet another appeal to the Higher Powers:

Can't you rename Nostalgia "The Archive"?  Bob's gonna suggest we just go all the way and call it Ivy, but I'd take it as a personal favor if you'd just ignore that.

It's gone down a lot in the last 24 hours.  I got woken up at 7:15am today by the little monitoring-bell going off. :)

This might have something to do with it:



Think you can spot where Small Favor came out? :)

So it's a bit later; how's the site's traffic doing as represented by ad impressions?



Translation: It has eased off from the hectic boom of Small Favor's initial release, but traffic remains elevated overall, with the lowest numbers touching the top of the former highs.

YAY!  That's really great, Fred.  With JB hitting all the bestseller lists, more people will start reading the books, and since the paperbacks have your site in them, hopefully this will continue.  Has encouraging people to click the ads and shop the site store helped?
