I don't even know how to mark this occasion. I would say it's "2 years since we adopted cwckiforums dot com", but we already abandoned it because we grew too large. The forums itself existed years before the domain did. March 2014 was when we adopted XenForo, March 2013 was when we had our Lolcow board open.
So, what is today? I'm not sure. To you guys it may not mean much, especially since many of you still visit since before I ever did. It is, however, 2 years since I started running the website, so I'd like to celebrate that.
You are all really weird and running this website is in many ways the most challenging thing I put up with. It costs money, time, effort, and energy. I have had bikers sent after me, legal threats made, a hate cult formed, people have directly attacked our servers on multiple occasions. Just 3 days ago, we had a botnet attack deaglenation.tv to try and bruteforce Jace's password. That's why the site was running slowly.
Yet, we're still here, and we're really big. I've met a lot of interesting people that have impacted my life in more positive ways than I'd care to admit. I've spoken to the fucking Boston Globe about Jace in the last week. I could go on, but I don't feel like writing much more, so here's a graph. It shows posts per month and active users per month. Active users were only recorded after switching to XenForo.
Here's to two more, you assholes.
