So what happened on June 15???

Post by ALynnPowers »

After all of these years, the record has been broken for most users ever online!

Ever since I have been a member of this site, the record was always something like 267 or whatever (don't quote me on that, I don't remember the exact number!! Though I probably should, given the number of times I saw it) from back in 2012 or something.

So what happened on June 15 (2016) that brought all these people to sign on at once!?!?

Is it because @Scott broke Amazon and Twitter with his banned book? Hahaha.

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Yes, it was probably the banning of the book. :)

I love that the record was broken! Sorry it has to be at the expense of your book, Scott...oh wait! It's still available! Never mind. Glad your banned book can still be shared! :D

People were just so outraged that such an awesome message was removed and they came here to find answers.
