    So, I might be an absolute nerd, but I jumped down to the bottom of the main forum page and saw that the post count had edged over 450,000. Combined with the fact that we recently took over the top spot on FF.net's C2 page... that's some badassery right there. I'm just sayin.

    Congrats, DLP! :awesome

    Holy fucking shit, a number. Congratulations everyone. Keep up the hard work in the sake of all that looks satisfying visually in the denary number system.

    That, or the urge to be pointlessly hostile since she's on DLP.

    Being the first person to insult a potentially stupid thread/OP is like the DLP version of calling "first" on youtube videos.

    Nobody said that the thread was a good idea. To the contrary, it's rather pointless.

    Your overreaction was mildly entertaining though.

    Not trying to be a tool or anything. I just find it somewhat indicative of the community's longevity and ability to maintain what seem to be some of it's core components (good writing, somewhat intelligent conversation and a depth of experience among our membership that is definitely lacking elsewhere on the Internet). That, coupled with the fact that we've made a dent in the idiocy that was a big part of the Harry Potter C2 on FF.net is cool, tis all.

    I'm fine with this thread. In fact, it's pretty cool to see the number. Because that's a shit ton of posts. Just sayin, Pal, you're going a bit overboard with the bitch mode.

    Tone it down.

    You could do what people generally do when they have nothing to say. Shut up.

    I was thinking the other day about how it's kind of amazing that DLP keeps getting bigger and bigger in the fanfiction community. I kinda thought it would fizzle out after the books finished, but here we are 6 years after I joined with no end in sight.

    Good shit bros

    This means that every member has an average postcount of 50 posts and if we take away 50% of the members (people who just register and then post very few posts/never post) we get 100 post each by 4500 posters.

    That's way more than I would have imagined.
