By clean I mean no spammers, sock puppets.

We do a very good job with engagement. Session times are right around 10 minutes. I'd like to have your membership What is your site? If you want to send in PM, thats fine too.

We are 5 years in now and we took the leap of a complete site rebranding. We foung that we outgrew our original name, Pugski.com and evolved more globally and are now "SkiTalk | Powered by Pugski.com"

Good choice in my opinion.
You are not affraid about SEO for a big change like this ? How do you manage the links redirecting ?

SEo has been fine. We lost about 2 weeks of Google Adsense, that hurt but numbers are back up. We kept the old url and we are redirecting that.
