dear me.

My goodness, myOtakuists are prolific writers. I'm not complaining, mind you, but I'm not used to going through and seeing new posts on nearly everybody's sites, since I usually check them, oh, all the freakin' time. The Last Updated thing came just in time.

Let's see ... what else. Dagger advised people to come on by OB and sign up. I'd do the same. ... Along with a warning that it will assuredly be a love-hate relationship, as briefly enumerated in my previous post. In fact, it wasn't really enumerated at all as I didn't go into any of the "hates", but I've decided not to do that as people would probably ... read it and stuff. :-P

It's interesting how the big names on myOtaku (that is, the people who get the most visits and such) don't correlate with the big names/posters on OtakuBoards. I suppose that's not very surprising ... but I find it fascinating.

I've also definitely noticed a huge visitor rise over the weekends. (Maybe this has something to do with my usually updating on Saturday or Sunday, though.) Well, it's the weekend now, people -- surge! Flock to me! :-P

I'm in a bit of an odd mood, if you hadn't noticed.

---------- Oh yeah, one more thing. (One moooore tiiing ... a la Uncle from Jackie Chan's Adventures. No? Okay then.)

Just a cute little moderating story -- I've been debating trying to crack down on punctuation, grammar, and such, but I decided I may as well give it a shot, so I sent some PMs to some members. One response in particular was very cute, to a member who'd been here for a while and had always completely ignored the rules of capitalization.

He responded with something like, "I ... I've been caught!!! Sorry, I always knew the rules, but since I've always gotten away with it ... I'll be better about caps in the future." (Completely misquoted, since I deleted the PM unfortunately, but along those lines.)

I thought it was a) a sign that I should PM more members about their grammatical choices, but more importantly, b) an utterly adorable response. :-)
