First, thanks to Jurgen and Carson for a wonderful site. It's been an interesting and productive year, much of which I can attribute directly (and indirectly) to fnaut.
My item for the Christmas Wish List:
Greatly reduce "Group Activity" space at bottom of a Group's front page to allow a greater number of works listed on front page of said Group.
Murray Grimace!
(Also, having a thread jump to the top of the Discussion forum of a Group, as it does in General Forum, would be a nice stocking stuffer.)
(P.S. I hope the financial health and well-being of the site (and yourselves personally) is being realized to your satisfaction through the use of advertisement. If anything, people should click on them and have a look-see. That's what the people are paying for: looks/clicks/visits--which in turn keeps this site free for us.)
Matt, its good you pointed out that we should be clicking onto the book ads on the pages, and how it will in turn help the entire fictionaut community stay solvent
