One Hundred Thousand Members?! Sappy thank you in post.
Wow. This is an unbelievable milestone for our sub. As in I literally cannot believe it! Im almost speechless.
As most of you know, I took this sub over 4-5 years ago and we had less than 8k members, and no moderation. The OGs of the sub remember all my early posts and were very kind in my Reddit Request post in full support of someone like me with my passion for the subject to take over. And I was given full control of the sub inside of a week.
u/dogswontsniff was one of those OGs, always posting good and helpful info, so he was who I chose to build up and co-lead mod the sub and keep it free from drama.
From then we enlisted an absolutely amazing mod team that we are up to now, all professional and kind people who are just here to help share knowledge and help keep the peace. These guys are all working hard in the background and consistently helping, and I could not be happier with how great each of them are!
My personal goal for this sub was to be a resource sub first where anyone can ask any question without being belittled, and receive genuine help. And then to be a conversation and sharing sub second, where we come together to just enjoy our shared passion for the warmth of the wood stove.
We have hit that goal and then some. Dont get it confused, YOU ALL BUILT THIS SUB, not me. And THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart, and thank you on behalf of all my Mods for being the best damn sub on Reddit!!
With Love- DWD
