Yea, give them credit... They capitalized quickly on the split that happened here on Bitcointalk and on r\Bitcoin on Reddit.
I am a moderator for a Bitcoin related forum, and it
took us months to reach those figures. There are loads of forums out there with free speech, if that is the angle they want to take on that.
Roger Ver is a great guy and I like his drive and ambition for Crypto currencies and if he sees the need for a service like this, I would also support that.. I just do not like the idea
that we need to split the community. {Core vs XT supporters} This will blow over and we will be divided over silly things like that.
