Between the mess that was the conversion on TN/TB, and the rash of disturbing images in signatures, I know that I'm not heading over to TN/TB again anytime soon. But I see a lot of newbie posts there. Any ideas on how to maybe get people here instead or in addition to TB?

I don't want to risk getting a virus.

Dr. L - I know you are on there. Maybe encourage those folks to post over here.

ETA: I posted a (potentially bannable) post on Adoption, and put a blurb on the FB page. We'll see if it increases traffic at all.

Hopefully that was balanced out with more people reporting me

Nice way to avoid spam, gross pictures, viruses, and lame platform issues

Nice to see it's picking up!
