We just hit 200,000 posts in one year at MH, so you can count us as a forum that also had this happen. Elliot, that might have hurt ;D

There are a ton of good reasons why Phil's forum is the success it is, not the least of which is that he has focus on one thing and tons of downloadable content. He's running the kind of forum that is supposed to work, in other words - and running it awesomely well, if I know Phil at all which I should after all this time Show me another forum that breaks all the rules that Chaos does and still works better, I'll sulk a bit... maybe... After I've finished taking notes ;D

Well, downloadable content = leeches for the most part, they don't have to register in order to get these files. We DO have, at the moment, 64 translators, which brings a lot of interested people, as well as previews. That's kinda our trump card. But the way to really hook new members are fun discussions, and I think we do that well - my staff's really good at encouraging intelligent discussions while keeping the atmosphere friendly, and I review chapters every week, which is a lot of work, but they do bring out new members from the shadows. And yeah, we have a lot of focus on manga. Our site is also starting to get pimped on other sites as the destination point for all the most popular manga chapters, so that's pretty cool. Wish you guys were more interested in manga But anyway, yeah I was kinda tootin my horn there. Sorry, couldn't resist. Chaos Cascade did pretty well to get 50,000 posts though, considering you guys don't have as many members we do.
