Yo, just got my trophy for being here for 3 years and as one of the founding members that means that D-PAD is 3 years old now! Happy Birthday, D-PAD!

The last year of NeoGAF was really shitty and so when I got invited first to the Discord and then here I was very happy and still am. This is still set as my homepage at home and at work and I love to interact with most of you. Shout out to all my bosom buddies, you know who you are.

So here's to many more years that await us here! Cheers, big ears! 🍻

My brother in pad! Got my 3 year badge too.

Cheers to you and all the other hammer legends here for creating the least shit place on the internet!
 
And to think Evilore said we were so bad, no where would have us.

Think we proved we were never the problem. Made some great friends, and while we all wind each other up sometimes I wouldn't have it any other way.

Perfect sized forum as well. Busy enough to be active, but you generally know 90% of the posters your interacting with.
 
I'm glad I found out about the DPAD. I had mostly stopped posting on neogaf for like the last couple years before the ree-exodus, then got more active after it. I started really liking GAF again after every person I hated on the forum left all at once overnight.

But then we all know what happened there with the goblelf and his real vision for the site. So I don't know of anywhere else I would have gone. I might have just not used a forum at all anymore 🤷‍♂️
 
@mcz117chief Thanks for making a thread, and appreciate the kind words, from you and everyone else. It was a crazy dream, but we all realized it, and despite the odd bouts of drama llama now and then it's been a fun ride for the most part and it heartened us all to see people turn up daily for a bit of Vitamin D. Big thanks go out to all our various News Hounds, Content Creators, Thread Creators & Shit Posters, who fuel the site, the Moderation/Admin team for handling reports, account approvals, and keeping the site updated and tickity boo, our various members who sub or gift subs which pay for the whole damn thing, as well as everyone who simply comes here for a good time and keeps it lively.

Cheers

I didn't even get an invite. I just invited myself and no one had asked me to leave... yet 😅. Only person I had on social things outside of Gaf was @Nobel 6.

I got invited because I was liking some of the controversial posts on GAF. I can't remember the exact phrase but the person that invited me to the disident Discord said me liking the posts but not posting was like those torture victims blinking Morse code into the camera. And it wasn't like I didn't have anything to say, but the posts I liked said the same thing but better. That was before liking a post was a banable offence.
