damn is it me or are things ramping down around here? Where's all the pissing and dissing? What about the thought provoking post?

I've been gone all weekend and there's not that many post. What's up?

Kind of boring around here.

It's monday. My observations of adult webmaster boards has been that Saturday, Sunday and Monday are the three slowest days by far. I didn't do an actual scientific post count study (although I'd love to if I had the scripts to assist with it) but just from reading and participating on several of them, that is the way it appears to me.

In fact, some pretty busy boards come almost to a complete stop for the weekend. Monday's are slow I think because everyone is just getting back to work and catching up.

I haven't noticed if the weekend slowdown occurs as much on boards like GFY. That may be a little different since it is 99% goofballs and hardly any real business gets done there.

But for boards where actual business people post, not just kids and tgp posters, I see a definitive Saturday thru Monday slowdown.

Tuesday is usually when things begin to pick back up.

Anyone else noticed these patterns or any other interesting board behavior patterns?

HAHA Serge, I think you are right....

Though isn't "jewing down" a racial stereotype?

Serge think the "slowdown" of Oprano has anything to do with the new message board someone wants to pay people to post on?

There is probably a direct corrolation....

lololol......

I missed all the piss this weekend, don't know how but found out about it today when I was glancing at Ducks column on setgo.....

And I thought he had stopped reading Oprano......

But, by the time I got to reading all the threads, everybody had edited all their messages, so you could'nt see what the to-do was all about

I think we should turn the "edit" option off..... If you post something you would have to live with it and all the tumult it causes, rather than being allowed to go back and literally remove your words....

just mho.........

Edited to remove all the good controversial stuff out
Edited again because I didn't really mean he was an asshole even though I said it
Edited once more because I implied he was gay when he is actually a trannie...

A slowdown over the weekend on boards generally is something I've noticed too, tho not just in the last few weeks. It seemed to start shortly after the events of Sept 11 when people suddenly realised there was more to life than work and that spending time with family and friends should be a priority.

Have to say tho, that this phenomenon is far less apparent on Oprano than on most other boards. This is one of the few boards that still seems to maintain a reasonable level of activity most weekends, and on some weekends (depending on the topics under discussion), Oprano still flies.

Yeah, the board needs more threads like;

"I want to hire people to post on my board"

or

"buy my dog food"

or

"buy my niche videos"

Dianna, if the pace is slowing down at oprano (it always seems this way when you aren't involved in the discussions regularly), why would you want to start a new board?

and how on earth can you possibly be thinking $5 per post?!?!?!?

i'm really confused by the model your proposing ... where does the board make money?

I thought alex and jr had a pretty good go the other day ... we hadn't had a public legal issue for a while ...

I've noticed these threads always get started when there's another board or resource about to come out ... "isn't oprano stale, come post on my board" kinda deal ... i wonder what's happening?!


so nick, where the fuck have you been anyway? :P

mutt, i am going to ask you nicely.. then the gloves come off!

in your previous post, you have implied that i "battle" with the emotionally
challenged. "Battle" as we both know can be defined or interpreted
as "Armed fighting, often resulting in death or injury of one or more of the
participants".

i participated in no such event with any registered member of this board.

your blatent and crude attempt to mischaracterize me as a
cruel, heartless and thuggish individual, may cause serious harm to my
business, my family, my friends (both real and imagined), my partners,
my dog, my dogs friends, my dogs friends partners, my parakeet, my web
servers, my neighbors and anyone else posting on the world wide web
purporting to be me, who may exist either on this planet, the moon, Mars
or any other planet throughout the galaxy or nearest star systems which
may as of yet, be undiscovered.

you have until the end of the day to retract your statement and make a
public apology to Serge for not including him directly in any possible
controversy.

should you joke about making t-shirts about me - i will continue to
threaten you further in a very serious, yet sadly laughable; "this is really,
really, really, your last chance" manner. I will then continue to do so, as if i
really believe that i am going to travel to Canada to file a losing lawsuit
about something stupid against someone who will not hesitate to spend
the time, money and will to deal with it,... partially out of principle, mostly
out of boredom.

think before you reply mutt.
and do the right thing.

Serge beat me to it...Pearl! We were saying this a couple of years ago. There were a half dozen or so major boards online and then all of a sudden over night they were popping up like 7-11s! The last time I updated resource listings I was taking OFF as many fly-by-night here-today-gone-tomorrow resource boards as I was adding ON. Apparently it's still the cool new thing to do.

Personally - give me a small handful of places to post - and lots of other places to learn, read and be edumacated and I'm happy. But geez folks - let's not split hairs and segregate the industry any more than it already is. I already have to hit 10-12 boards daily to read all the people I want to read and to reach all the people I need to reach!



BTW - this is the reason for my decision to make the Klixxx boards an article feedback forum area and NOT a community chat board. It's not meant to be a chat board for daily posts - it's supposed to be for discussion of the issues explored in the articles and tutorials we present to our readers. That's it. Hopefully over time it will develop into a good place for the writers to receive feedback on their work - and for webmasters to ask additional questions that they thought of while reading the articles.

I have to agree with Colin - yours does. Not everyone's - but definitely yours. That and you've always had a knack for both timing and knowing a good thing when you see it.

I'm not surprised in the success of the Dan Spitz message board - and I doubt anyone here is either.
