Yep, the clicks help.  They've fallen off a bit from the highs, but that mostly tracks alongside the traffic curve, above -- so we've got a somewhat sustained improvement, definitely helping to continue to justify the increased costs of the server we're on.  :)

Good.  I'm glad things are going well.  If that changes, let us know.  We'll nag.

No, when a thread splits off at fifty pages, it just looks like that. You have to click on the "Unread posts" link to find the new thread. Threads over 50 pages pull on the server too much and increase the likeliness of crashes.
If you are up to no good, please do no good for me too, okay?   ;D

I'm curious about something.  Every morning, around 1am EDT, the site locks up for a few minutes.  Do you have it set to do something at that time?

I don't but I believe my hosting provider does -- it's either a data backup or a log rotation at work.
