Just to let everyone know.... we've outgrown our space so I am doing a bit of "cleaning".
Our database has grown to within 1MB of getting turned off for being too big (100MB of text), and the advertising is not generating enough money to pay for a more robust hosting plan, so as much as it kills me, I am getting rid of some content. (I know you always hear me saying don't delete pages
)
There are too many posts for me to agonize over each and every thread, so for now I am going through and bulk deleting any post that is more than a year and a half old and has 1 or fewer comments. Hopefully this will get us down to size to keep us going longer AND it should make it easier to browse through older posts with more meaty discussion.
As you can imagine, the "Off topic", Chat Vent Cry, and Inn the News are hardest hit by this downsizing.
