My dwarves range from 65 to a whopping 1215.
How happy are your dwarfs, and what's causing them pleasure/displeasure?

[Fluoman]

They're going from children & babies (100) to 680.
Legendary dining rooms + palace bedrooms is pretty great.
They're just sad that i keep destroying their masterwork leggings.

[Melting Sky]

My dwarfs are generally very happy, most are in the green on dwarf therapist, that is until the reaper starts paying our fortress a visit at which point I start seeing the odd dwarf pop up with a happiness down below 50. I think my happiest dwarf is over a thousand. I've seen one tantrum so far which happened to an important dwarf who was prone to mental illness after his kid was slaughtered by goblins and some of his masterwork bolts wandered off the map imbedded in the sorry hides of a few lucky goblins that managed to survive our vengeance.

My Dwarfs are not as happy as they could be.  Course, I have built a city based on the Middle Ages, with a Lower, Middle, and Upper Class, so a few of them are not very happy.

Also, lately, lost a lot of Dwarfs, adults and children, to Monsters, insanity, and other issues.  Add the patrol bug to the 40ish Dwarfs in the military and things are not going so well. 

[Baffler]

The baseline happiness in my forts tends to be from fine to content. This is on purpose, to maximize potential fun if things go really wrong.

My dwarves are generally all ecstatic due to luxurious dining rooms, meeting halls, bedrooms and great food and drink, except when Fun comes knocking around.

Current range: 127 - 227

The duke drops to slightly unhappy whenever he realises that a founder and general badass has a nicer tomb than he does. It looks as though I finally got fed up with his whining though, as there are no longer any bad thoughts about "inappropriate" tombs.

Happy thoughts: the usual suspects -- they have decent bedrooms, a nice dining room, good food and drink, and plenty of furniture to admire. They also have plenty of time to socialise. Two cat-owned dwarves have been comforted by their masters.

Unhappy thoughts: I decided to deal with the issue of boulders in far-flung tunnels by ordering them to the trade depot, so about half the dwarves in the fortress are complaining about having gotten thirsty from having to lug enormous rocks over 500 tiles. There are also a smaller number of complaints about hunger and drowsiness. The progress of Operation Sunlight is going well, with about half the dwarves complaining about nausea or irritation. Four dwarves are permanently grumbling about minor injuries, having one useful hand each.

[Orange Wizard]

My dwarves are punching each other's faces in. There's blood everywhere in the gold-plated dining room, I don't think they like that.
There isn't a whole lot to drink since a troll smashed my cavern farms (no booze) and there's no water on the map. That may also be an issue.
The mayor's pet bronze colossus escaped too. That may or may not have been the source of the blood in the dining room.

Me,too.
