I know it isn't really a serious problem, but it still is a problem. No one replies to my posts! I doubt anyone will even look at this thread... :sad:

Guess what? Someone just looked at it :p

Don't worry about it, lots of people don't get their posts replied to, heck, I bet I've killed millions of threads :mrgreen:

Don't worry, no one hates you, we are all your friends ^^

Thank you so much for replying! The only other thread I've gotten replies in is the Intorduction thread.

Hey Sweetie_Pie, don't worry too much over people not saying too much at first. Just keep posting, and just be nice, and you'll get responses in no time :)

Don't worry! Just be nice to everyone, don't spam and try not to get banned. You'll do fine.

Does anyone really try to be banned? Besides trolls, I mean. Don't worry about killing threads: I'm a mod, and I kill more threads just by posting in them than locking them!

Same thing happened to me when I wa new, it seemed that on-going threads just stopped when I posted, but it's not as bad as it seems. Especially since we aren't that active of a forum, only a few people will be online and posting at one time. Don't worry about it.

Which leads me to this question, how did you ever get those 248 people online at the same time?! o_O

Meh, everyone kills threads. Nothing to worry about, like everyone else said.
I have a theory, though: the threads that new users usually post in at first are the ones that us vets have already posted our opinions in, like favourite email, characters, main page, etc. So there's really nothing for us to say there.
Just don't go making 400,000 new topics just to get noticed or we won't like you. ;)

What are you talking about, teh Ch8t? 248 people online in the same time. Some of them must have come early and others have joined them. But, not in the same time.

Those weren't 248 actuall users; at least 220 of those were computers behind the NSMC attack thing.

Then why hasn't anybody changed the value of it in the database yet? I'd rather see the real record than a higher yet fake one.

On November 11, 2005, the Homestar Runner Wiki (along with the Fanstuff Wiki) suffered a massive rash of vandalized pages. The vandal used thousands of IP Addresses and replaced the text of hundreds of entries with the words "***** STOLE MY COW!" and a number. After anonymous editing was disabled, the vandal bot created thousands of usernames. For a time afterwards, editing was closed to all but those who were registered before the attack. After several weeks a CAPTCHA was introduced, and new user registration and anonymous editing were re-opened.
