And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Spam?

(It's a fine line, and that post probably doesn't cross it, but it's not conversation either.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think it is conversation -- she is asking Jilli a question. It's undeniably commerce related, but is engaging posters. And hasn't really advertised anything explicitly.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Actually, it looks to me as though she's reacting to a post of Jilli's, so I think it does count as conversation.

Or what ita said.

I'm actually kind of impressed that they were able to find the post referencing their business.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

She probably has a sitemeter/counter that tells you from whence a visitor came (that gives a specific page, obviously, not just the domain).

Okay. I'm probably being oversensitive.

More likely she was checking referrer logs. It's what I do.

Do the referrer logs give the specific page URL?

Yup.

So much for being impressed.
