While the holidays were a little quiet here, we wanted to announce that we had over 130,000 page views for January. We’re growing quickly and we have you to thank. Keep coming back and let us know what we can do better. We are always trying to improve things and make stuff easier.
Other interesting stats:
- Together, we’ve written over 745 post and there have been… OVER 14,000 COMMENTS on these posts. You guys are commenting more than the spammers which have spammed our site about 6,500 times. cVillains > sPammers, booya!
- When you visit our site, you spend an average of 9 minutes, 30 seconds on the site and visit about 5 pages.
- You rock.
Anyway, let us know what we can do better. We have planned to launch our new site on February 8th, so stay tuned. The site will introduce some changes we hope you like. I think we are still a long way from ideal, but we are happy with what we have so far. So get your keyboards out and get ready to critique things when we launch in a little over a week.
Some key changes:
- Better categorization and site navigation
- Wider page for easier reading
- More space for ad units (ew, I know, but we aren’t doing pop ups or anything annoying like that)
- New artwork
- Hottest posts ranking
- Featured Articles
- Sexy Archives
- …and More!
Advertisers, if you are listening, send us an email at cvillein at gmail.com for details. We would be happy to get you on our site for our site re-launch.
Thanks again. We love you.

You might not be doing pop ups, but when my exclusive clique gets to makin out, I sure am.
/couldn’t resist.
If you’re going to create archives, by all means make them sexy archives.
Keep up the good work.
I love the flirty crosstalk (even though I don’t engage). It makes the board seem alive and real and local. I really like that I can have an online hangout that is actually vibrant enough to spin out into frequent real-life interaction. Without that vivre, this would be just another dry board where you either get a lot of useless arguing or a lack of participation.
It’s kind of like a party. If there were no gadflies buzzing around, the rest of us would shyly sit in our separate corners silently sighing. And the women would come and go, talking of Michael’s Bistro.
but… now everybody knows your web stats? don’t media outlets try to keep that stuff secret for some ridiculous reason that makes no sense?
HOW CAN YOU HAVE A CLIQUE IF YOU DON’T HAVE ANY SECRETS?
our secrets run deeper than any metrics can tell you.
remember Area 51? ya, forget about it.
How long ago did you write this, Thor? Is the URL info (p=861#comment-20649) not accurate? I waited half an hour to be the 20,000th comment (even if I didn’t go Wilt Chamberlain or Jules Verne with it) and now you’re saying its more like 14,000? Urrggghhhh.
May I suggest having an unrated thread every day or so (designated by a [U] after the title? Maybe floozy would come back? Or a designated thread for those of us who like to color outside the lines a bit?
I know a secret.
I wrote this T minus 20 minutes ago.
The spam comments take up space in the comment #s.
Doof, good question. Thor and I will check out posts in our dashboards while they’re works in progress, and once we confirm they’re ready, we post. Often, I open a draft, and the time stamp is something like 3:34am, and it’s about half of a sentence complaining about something that had just happened at bars. These are hilarious. So no, not every post that’s initiated ends up getting published.
one time i wrote half a post about how lilith is actually the bucket man from the downtown mall. i forgot about it and closed the window, then 3 hours later thor emailed me asking if i wanted him to publish my scraps.
get out of my brain, internet. i had no idea you could do that.
What? Our abandoned drafts are visible to you two? Wow. I take back all the things I said about Athena being totally more powerful than Thor. Gee whiz. Never thought you’d see that.
ThatGrrl.. why do you think you got “‘bolted?”
That hurt, by the way!
Can you hear me singing Alaska y Dinarama at the top o’ my lungs?
sorry that 13,984 of the comments are mine about makeouttage. But how else should we use the “Caroline Hour” (*wink, Parlie) I’m famous!
@7 Doof, what a cruel joke baby.
On a more serious note, no one is excluded, EVER, duh, that’s why we post meet up times and places, so, like EVERYONE can show up. If we were so effing cliquey, I’m pretty sure we wouldn’t talk about meeting up for all to see. So either join the partay or quit cryin’ about it.
I didn’t know Wordpress did that, but yeah, if you have Javascript on, the page can report back any keystroke or mouse action you do within the page. That’s part of so-called AJAX a.k.a. Web 2.0. Come to think of it, it is kinda creepy. It’s also why you can save a draft while typing up a long message in Gmail, using control-S in MS Windows.
What does Spam say?
Congratulations!
OK I do have one question. What’s up with the search function? On what does it search? Very random, those results
Spam says: \/1@gRA 4 Le$$!!!1!

the whole world of Spam is at your fingertips!
Use Google. It’s very up to date. Try this in your Google box:
I worry that I might view the same posts over and over again…………..then ……what …me worry?. It would be nice if whatever I viewed was archuved and only posts showed up. Not complaining though …’cause there are times I’m just not paying attention.
I don’t see the word spicy used in here even once. I somewhat disappointed and a dollar poorer.
Lu Sid. i would like to make a spicy complaint to the dreaming world that i did not ask to have lucid dreams- but i would like them to leave me alone- for there is nothing worse than finally, for the love of god, falling asleep to having to be completely in control of my weird dreams.
thank you, good night.
oh, sorry about your dollar.
MC gillicudy:
Your message was slightly confusing, but your mention of spicy was hot. I hope you had great dreams last night and I will be sure to bill cVillain for your use of the word spicy
