Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

Sweet. That's not bad at all.

Entirely unrelated, I had a bit of traffic drop off at my site over the past few months, for reasons that are not really important. Google appears to have taken me out of the penalty box and traffic is starting to work its way back to the former levels.

This pleases me.

they had you demoted?

Yeah, they were kinda mad at me.

See, I accepted payment for a 'guest article' that was really not all that topical and served only to link to a couple of other sites.

I didn't realize Google would frown on that like they did, but that has to be the reason because the response from Google was almost instantaneous and I started dropping traffic like mad.

That also was combined with the 'summer slowdown' where all sites get less traffic when it's summer in the northern hemisphere (where most internet users are).

So, it was pretty drastic. I dropped like 17% to 20%.

Things are good now, I think... Traffic is building up again.

Speaking of which, if you happen to visit the site, you should click an ad or two. nods There's actually room for more ad clicking today - as it's only at like 1.45%.
