Can’t wait to see the stats and the related incremental ad revenue generation.

In the last 7 days there have been 27k minutes worth of browsing sessions on the site. A month ago that 7 day period had 15k minutes worth of browsing sessions. Ad revenue has not doubled, unfortunately.

Yeah, these last couple days have been weird. I'll get on the site and it'll take me more than 5 minutes to see everything there is to see. And here I was thinking that with all this pandemic quarantining, I'd have more free time to do stuff. Nope, here I am going through threads and occasionally posting, just sitting on my couch, not doing stuff.

Oh well, it's a nice little comeback for a site that's lasted over 10 years and beat JJ's corpse into the ground; always good to take another victory lap over those fucks!

To be fair, they sold out to maxpreps, so likely made a bit of money. I'm making no money on the site anymore.

Maybe Justin worked with the Chinese to cause the pandemic knowing it would help the site.

It's free, and you're still making improvements.

That's an actual good job.

I look forward to people complaining when I launch the new design in a few weeks. It makes all of the work worth it. :)

If I still have my Johnny Bench card from the back of the Twinkie box I will send it your way.

I am just happy we don't deal with adsense anymore.
