Better than my IRC client, which decided it could no longer save settings on exit. It's hard to stay committed to IRC stoogery when that happens.

...That said, there are still a few people cheerfully updating dictionary entries (yourself included), so it's not like death has transfixed the land or anything.

We had a really good run back when it came up and then it suddenly died more completely than it ever had. Honestly not sure what to make of that.

Annie has essentially no userbase outside of the people on IRC, presumably also as a result of the fact that it was so unstable before. Conlanging has also strongly remained on the Zeeb because there are things going on there and unlike new posts on a PHPBB changes to Universes here are not broadcast to other users, which is p bad on a "sharing things" view.

I guess also that nobody advertises this site anywhere, probably for the above reasons.

I guess my new year's resolution is to a) fix metaverses for Matrix (sorry Matrix!) b) try and make a page showing recent edits to Universes, with an indicator like the main forums button c) badger... idk Yatalac maybe to link annie on her canlanging tumblr.

EDIT: @Rhetorica use irssi imo

quassel is not good quassel is the client i just described oh my god twabs you twab

I may indeed resort to something more primitive.

Such a page should be no more work than filtering out forum posts and user pages from here. I suspect something a bit more drastic would make more sense.

yep! and to irc, and to annie. although i'm sure there's something else i have to be doing.
technically i still have to defend it and not fuck up whatever administrative hoops i have to jump through. but that should be easy enough.

Oh, that isn't the reason why I asked. It is well known that, in the forums, behaving like tectonic plates is the norm here.

Let's celebrate it with many celebrations!
