    I found it by looking at the profile of the author of harry potter and the boy who lived on fanfiction.net. Fanfiction.net only had the first few chapters at the time and I saw that the author had more written here.

    Yeah, it's probably a bit too late to be changing this at such a stage, but it'd be interesting to have the fanfic author option split into:
    - the santi
    - everybody else.

    Like many of the people here, I joined for The Santi because I wanted more of his story.

    I've seen it recommended on /r/HPFanfiction a few times, and it was described as a great HP community, if a potentially brutal one.

    Someone in the replies section of "Harry Potter and the Boy Who Lived" mentioned there were more chapters posted on this forum. So redirected from fan fiction.net, I suppose.

    Most DLP authors mention this place whenever they post their stories on FFN, so that's where I first heard about you guys. And considering that those stories were good, that added a lot to your reputation. I held off for years, but decided to be brave.

    Honestly, that poll should allow multiple selections, because some of the other statements also ring true.

    If I remember correctly, I came across DLP during one of my "travels" through Goggle, searching for something. Don't remember exactly what I was looking for, possibly something related to a HP fanfiction or another topic, but I am certain that was how I came across DLP.

    I originally found DLP somewhere between 2011-2013 when the name was mentioned without context. I thought I was searching for a fanfic.

    I found this site after reading "The Game of Champions", a Pokemon fanfic that has been inactive for over a year. I heard that the author was still active on this site, and published some news here.

    I'm another one brought in by The Santi. I was looking up fanfic recommendations on tvtropes and it mentioned more chapters for HP&BWL had been posted here.
