some stuff

All I understood from all that was, look! A graph!

I'm kidding. Tremendous work, lego. Don't blow the profits on cristal.

Excellent Stuff! Great work Lego and Yak! I have watched and participated in multiple forums over the past few years. And Dakka has always seemed the best in presentation, quality of posts, uniqueness and awesomesauce extras.

Side note for the graphs rather than show the graphs and all of 'connect-the-dot' lines use the trendline, since you are showing trends.

Thanks a lot for the intel. I came for wh40k, and stayed for the popcorn discussions (and the excellent painting section).

That makes two of us...

Posting from a mobile device is a fine idea, it's a bit of a hastle to lug my PC and associated devices into the bathroom everytime I need to go into the bathroom for whatever reason.

Nice to see that Dakka is on the up and up with more converts to the Dakkite regardless of other forum's misgivings towards our site's magnificence and diligence towards Imperial-style justice as our mods like Majortom have demonstrated in the fight towards devious scammers like Mandelbaum who pose threats to communities such as ours.

Numbers don't lie people, kind of makes certain hate threads made by disgruntled former Dakka members all the more delicious seeing how their complaints and poisonous spite to keep others away from here fail miserably before the funky power of mobile reading pooping Dakkites like us.

Moble pooping mobile.... started laughing because that is what my mind first read. so I'll give you this URL of the TOTO Bike Neo

Now back on topic. I've always said that the greatness of Dakka are the mods that are in here (include Yak and Lego of course), and the talent of the people that come to this wonderful site that share their ideas and concepts that make this place so strong.

Like Grimskul commented... Numbers don't lie.

Aww, I would love to see that again. See if I am actually helping or harming.

This thread was glorious. Re-reading it filled me with profound nostalgia for the "good olde days."

Thanks for the graphs, lego! It's nice to see we are moving up in the world! I'm going to +1 the idea of revisiting that graph. If kronk is willing to break out the abacus and make it happen I say let him! Of maybe he could get his friend Kronk Kronkington to it. Odd, though, that I've never seen the two of them at the same time...

from what i understand, Mr Kronkington spends a great deal of time drinking with his friends Mr Kent and Mr Wayne

Why not do it while you poop like the rest of Dakka?

Maybe he doesn't have an iPoop )

For those of you who want to mobile device post while golden showering, Sony make a waterproof phone.

Samsung did too, an S3 variant.

Considering our popularity and dominant position I think we should take this opportunity to address the Search engine of this site.

It is beyond bad.

Yes.
This.

Please.

I am thankful for our Dakka overlords.

My experience with Dakka has mainly been that of a lurker, but I've been a fan of the site since the early 2000s due to our local players speaking highly of it (my friend Bill used to go by the handle DaemonLordAngron, if any of you remember him). When the site was completely rebuilt I kept checking back to see when it was up again, thus being user profile 132 (oh, how I wish our esteem on the forum was modeled after the Stonecutters...).

Recently I’ve tried to post more and am getting closer to finally entering a triple digit post count. I even entered the Two Tickets to Paradiso painting comp (and am firmly in the lowest third, giving me much to aim for if I enter the next comp). I even started a hobby blog to try and track my progress with Infinity and Malifaux and other random projects.

I hope to get around to ACTUALLY playing some mini games again as I’ve mainly been collecting and lurking here as an expression of my love of the hobby.

Keel up the good work, guys!

Of course you are thankful! If you aren't you get Baned!

I really, really want a Dakka phone app with optimized browsing. Different browsers I've used all display the forum sub-optimally, requiring me to either zoom to a very wide webpage (my Droid default browser), or wait for a long time for it to sorta wrap the text within my phone's screen (Firefox). Are there any plans for a dakka phone app in the future?

I can't wait till my pooping fills up a terabyte of information on Dakka.

Just like to take this chance to say thank you to all who make this site what it is. So again thank you lego and yak, and any others I don't know about, for all the effort you put in to this excellent site.

ps, any chance of that saltire flag yet? lol

Very interesting read, thanks.

Way to go! Dakka really is bestriding the wargaming world. It looks like Dakka has more posts per month than all the others combined.

It's fairly shocking to see how far warseer have dropped. When I joined dakka, warseer was the biggest on the block by a country mile.

Warseer constantly banning people that don't toe the company line probably have something to do with it. You're not a real Warhammer poster, unless you've been banned from warseer like half a dozen times.

Yep, Warseer's moderation policy is discussion-destroying rather than discussion supporting. Therefore, less discussion goes on there.

I threw poop at a Warhammer poster.



Did i do it right?

...what did I just read.

I might not post much - more of a reader - but I have definitely noticed how much Dakka has grown in the last 4 years. It's the only Wargaming forum I signed up to and it's still by far the best. Keep up the good work!!

Glad to see that Dakka dakka is doing great! Easily my favorite forum. Keep up the good work!

If you look at the graph the start of the decline of Warseer is around 2008/2009 when the Mods started calling themselves "The Warseer Inquisition" and threatening people with the "Ban Hammer" for minor infractions ( there was also a change to the senior mods at the time with the unpopular one's taking a more active role and the lenient ones leaving altogether )
