Ban user.

Y'all sound like the drunk student in The West Side Upper deck who is standing up the entire game facing away from the field yelling at the crowd behind him to stand up and yell.

Chill, brahs. This place will come alive once rep is activated.

OP making  a baller statement with all of his 5 posts on this site.

I regret that I have but 1 neg to give

Fuck the off season.

That and probably a big rush of activity at the start as everybody recreated old threads. 

I'd make more money if this site faded away. OK, this site and the interspecies dwarf porn sites too.

 

So far, I'm not making more money.

How much traffic did NSAA generate by itself?

I don't know, but it's a pale imitation of itself with this (apparently unsolvable) Imgur embargo. 

Well, thankfully we have our own scat board (Politics) to keep the place going.

the imgur thing and a bunch of stuff getting moved from bada/daily texan into the hobbies board (more specialized boards make things seem like there's less traffic) don't help.  it's also the offseason.

it was blocked occasionally at work when we first moved.    its good now

This thread delivers. Doesn't deliver anything worth having, but at least you don't have to go out to get it.

I don't know what you expect.  But right now on Shag, there are two users online.  Only 670 Surly bastards online.

So, discounting socks, that's roughly 30 real people on Surly at that time!

When you combine two hobbies of dancing and err, umm "internet research" in the same post:

I quit posting in CR.

Yeah for the politicos and their echo chamber but fuck that.

This place will take off just as soon as we win another title in football and baseball. The basketball team making another Final 4 appearance will help too. All that shit happened within a short span and brought a lot of traffic.

So patience is definitely going to be paramount here.

The old site was somewhat born from a perfect set of circumstances. Some of the epic game threads from those highly successful days brought in a ton of first time posters. That included rival posters that ended up staying at shag because it was just better and more diverse than anything else out there.

I normally hate the political board, but the Michael Cohen thread was good old fashioned fun yesterday during the hearing

Should have been in Current Events. News threads can be news without all the BS. 

Hell, the Boston Bomber thread might have been peek Shaggy and was in "current events".

When football season starts, traffic will pick up on all the boards here, not just football. 

Or the next time Surly cracks a local interest mystery or Some Dude reports live from a UT player’s trial/signing day/prom, the masses will show up and stay. 

yeah, this was just ranked 22k in the nation, and now it is down to 19k

Those two things go hand-in-hand. Magic.

That's one of the first threads I posted in. All the scanner traffic reports and other updates were facinating.

Is there a way to see the total # of registered users?
