A moment ago we reached the benchmark of 1000 days in beta. Many thanks to all of you for participation!

I hope that the site will continue to thrive and will eventually graduate. To that end, I would be happy to hear your thoughts. How have the first thousand days been? Are you particularly happy or unhappy about something? Is there something you would like to add or remove? What has this site given to you?

For the current number of days in beta and other statistics, see our Area 51 page.

  • currently 2.1 questions per day... how on Earth will we get to 10 per day? Unless Latin becomes super popular again, that will be hard...

  • @luchonacho Ten questions per day doesn't seem necessary, but about five are needed, judging by the statistics of graduated sites. Either way, we'll have to double the question flux.

  • If you find the secret to double the number of questions per day, please share it with the Spanish Language community! :-)

Given my experience in multiple SE sites, this is by far the most friendly one. Getting an upvote for Q or A on other sites (stackoverflow, math, unix, stats, ELU, to name a few) is very difficult. Meanwhile, religious sites are super defensive and hostile to outsiders. And there are so many haters all over the SE network.

Thus, relatively speaking, this site is a safe haven. I'm always happy to come back. My relatively high reputation is only a reflection of how kind you are, and by no means represents how good my Latin is (which is not).

    I'm very glad to hear this. The welcoming atmosphere is something that I – and no doubt others as well – have been striving for. Thanks for sharing this experience!

  • Yay! Perhaps it is because we are still a young website. Perhaps we will turn into grumpy old devils eventually...
