I probably should have mentioned it in the summary... it was good to see Sporting Events back in the Top 10.

It's only going to rocket higher with baseball starting this week and basketball continuing for 2+ more months. Plus a trickle of golf-related posts as major season gets underway and maybe even some hockey since the playoffs are about to start. A much more relevant comparison would be to compare the same month from a year ago. I'd bet it's up 10-20% or more but I have no clue.

Slightly unrelated, this thread has inadvertently let the proletariat behind the mod curtain and I have a pretty good idea of where everyone stands in Mod Wars™. I'll put a chart together when I get a minute.

2) You seemed to be criticizing mebenhoe for making it a "competition" between edf and tldr. He simply quoted sniper's post in which sniper ripped on diablo for not having more traffic in his forum.

I think you are reading too much into it Evan... if you think suggesting to ElD that he has work to do is ripping on him, I think you might be a bit too sensitive.

Ratchet it down a notch, we are in the end, all on the same team...

2) I'm very confused what all of you are finding in sniper's post that is so sinister. He didn't make any analysis or draw any conclusions; he simply stated that EDF's traffic went down and TLDR's went up. This, "ElD looks like you have some work to do...," is obviously (at least to me) spoken mostly in jest and is hardly anything to get riled up about. I understand there is a lot of backdrama that is causing this hostility, but as an objective observer who is mostly unaware of what hapenned with him, I didn't see anything wrong with his post.

Don't worry Alex, there was nothing wrong with the post... just some people showing their feminine side [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Well now that we are into April, we can actually compare year ago stats. It will be interesting when I get around to backing into the 4Q05 and 1Q06 numbers, traffic has increased quite a bit since then, including the shifting of traffic to many of the new forums created over the last year or so.

Another interesting trend that I didn't mention was the significant drop in IB traffic, that is likely Legislation related. A/R traffic also dropped off a bit.

In other news : Post count from supporters of the ElD forum in Sniper's Unofficial 2+2 Post Count Analysis thread rose by 30% further supporting the theory that they actually do care what he thinks! [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I'm pretty sure that sensitivity is not one of my many problems.

Question from an ATF noob:

Why not fold The Lounge into El Diablo Forum, and have Diablo or whomever moderate that? They are basically the same tenor / style / function. Is it purely mod politics?

There are good posters in The Lounge (Katy, Dom, Pryor) I never see anymore cause they are over there.

Not trying to stir the pot - just honestly don't see a functional difference between the 2 forums at all.

Totally serious question, do you read both forums?
