PMC! Soooo, I have good news and "bad" news!

Good news, the Creator Analytics update is ready but the bad news is the timing isn't right to launch. I have some IRL things happening that require my undivided attention. All good things though, so no worries there. It's just best to wait until things are settled so that I can return the same attention to the update and you.

Creator Analytics WILL release next month! It took longer than initially expected for a number of unexpected reasons but scope of work also grew in many directions for the best. There's always more to do after the launch but there's more than enough to be useful and fun now and into the foreseeable future and historical past interests. Always nice when things motivate you to go, go, go. Didn't help switching chart libraries last week but know it was the right decision for the short and long run.

You'll see soon and I'm looking forward to having the proper time to respond to bugs and feature requests.

WE'VE REACHED PEAK TOTALITY!!! I REPEAT!!! PEAK TOTALITY!!!!! THIS IS ONCE IN A LIFETIME !!!!!!

I know it's tempting but whatever you do, don't press any of the moderation buttons that show up on resource pages! It won't be until Tuesday that we'll be back in the office to look at any of this :(

Happy 9 year anniversary since I joined this Website to me... someone please remind me to come back here March 25th 2025 to celebrate 10 :P

Hi PMC, hope you're having a great weekend!

After a roller coaster ride of locating, merging, migrating and auditing massive amounts of data (nearly a billion records), I'm back on crossing off front-end features until remaining tasks are down to launch preparation. The bulk of the work is done, last 10% requires pushing through and eventually leaving some ideas for post launch.

Just going to drop several work in progress screenshots from various analytics sub-pages and let them do the talking:

Hi guys,

Please, please, please do not hesitate to message me or another staff member if someone is using our site's private messaging system in such a way as to make you uncomfortable. You have every right to use our site without being subject to private messages that make you feel unsafe or uneasy. You should never feel pressured into not speaking up.

Every private message chain has a block and report button underneath that allows you to quickly and easily block communications with a specific user, and (if you choose to) submit a report to the administrators so that they can investigate any relevant message chains and act in your best interest to keep you safe. If you'd rather talk about the situation with a site moderator, we can also forward your concerns to the admins (with your permission). Reporting a user through their profile will also put the situation on our radar so the team -- as a whole -- can put energy into investigating the situation for you.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

I'm working on our Creator Analytics update and while it has grown in scope, it's more interesting and useful than I first imagined.

Here's a sneak peak of just the top half of a random members analytics widgets!

Each widget has a full page view that allows for an in-depth exploration of its data and insights. You will have the flexibility to navigate through various time frames, extending back to the inception of your membership or the publication date of your content, depending on the specific context. Relevant content, notifications and more will be readily available to explain and learn more about your analytics.

Still not sure when it will be ready but every day, it's getting closer :P

Deep into our creator analytics update!

Find myself working at night instead of gaming because it's more engaging. Already covering profile, content, discussions... Maybe even get into wall post stats. For entertainment, knowledge and motivation.

Overall goal is to make it interesting to everyone that posts anything here. We just have so many systems and unique members that it's hard to cover all at once.

Scope keeps growing with what I want to add. Ready when it's ready.

Hi all - not sure if anyone I knew back in the day is still active, but I logged on to reminisce and it seems like it’s been 8 years 🥲

I don’t know where the time has gone. I think we all look back at our old posts and cringe, lol. I’ve now graduated college, gotten married, and own a home.


Maybe someday I’ll make another skin for fun. I hope everyone is doing so well in life!
