Gotcha. I think of message center as everything I see on the page, hence my confusion.
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Where do Buffistas shop online? Would it be useful to pick a few top sites (amazon, B&N, wherever), set up affiliate programs that send money to our lovely moneyperson, iffen anyone uses those links?
We can keep them on the links page, or wherever's useful.

If I only had a brain...
Sure. I buy oodles of books through Buffista recs anyway.

I made my latest Amazon purchase through the Buffista affiliate link currently in existence. I would continue to do such things on a regular basis (I've been rotating between TWoP and tvshowsondvd.com, when I remember).

CDBaby? I seem to recall several people buying CDs there recently (like, within the past year, maybe).

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I'm seeing a Buffistas Purchase Power link that has credited click-throughs for any number of merchants.
eta: (Geek-speak warning) A parser that is looking for a particular list of domains in a post can easily fix the link up so that it inserts a certain referer-id into that link, without disturbing the other request data appended to the link.
The ethical thing is bugging me a bit, about that. I suppose a message like "Your Amazon link has been fixed up to give the Buffistas a commission." could be appended to the post, to assuage that concern.
further eta:
… completely indecipherable, I suppose. What was a survey of popular purchase sites that might benefit the Buffistas becomes something full of web-geek esoterica. Sorry. Code-oids speak a different language.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Please don't do that. That would upset me in the same ways that prevent me from getting gmail right this minute.
I'm behaving and being a good girl about not protesting the affiliate links themselves.
