Whats the website?

Ex-RoNiN · 10 Apr 2006 at 19:37

There's a website that ranks forums by popularity, analysing statistics such as posts per day, replies per day, and things like that.

Does anyone know what site im talking about :confused:

I can't believe OcUK is the 192 most popular online computer forum

That's because they prune the posts regularly here.
If you order by posts in the last week we're 16th.

Plus OcUK has tough registration moderation. No hotmail emails allowed etc.

Moderators have to authorize each registration individually, not auto account.

No. 17 Pbnation. Probably the worst forum in the world! Shows size doesn't mean quality!

Didn't know they did that now. :cool:

Some of the forums in the top 25 (like the terrible Pbnation) have just been left as they are with poor moderation etc. Therefore, the amount of posts and replies is higher than on a properly maintained board like this one.

I didn't realise Game FAQ's was such a big site, my friend is a moderator there with the name "Roaddhogg" and he was saying how big it actually was and I didn't believe him. :rolleyes:

Ignorance is bliss when you've got ocuk.

gfaqs is enormous. Even on the most quiet boards there are daily posts.

all this talk of other forums will make the moderators uneasy
