Forums bigger than MacNN?

Forums bigger than MacNN? Games 50 posts Feb 6, 2003 — Dec 5, 2004
I'd like to see a way to look through a list of all registered MacNN users and be able so sort by join date, post count... etc, like I can do at MacAddict's forums.
Wait a internet minute here...are you saying other forums live other then MacNN?

Gibberish.

you're right, for once. that was gibberish.
MacNN is #39 on BigBoards, behind (possibly most notably) Neowin.net, a Windows-oriented site.


The funny thing about Neowin is that in their icon/wallpaper/theme forums, the majority of the ideas are trying to mimic OS X in one way or another.



edit: that's #39 in the Computer-related section

You could say that MacNN is the Walmart of all Mac forums.

There are 45654 registered members. Of course, about 50 of those are old Ca$h aliases from way back when .

As for post and thread counts, you can add those up yourself from the front page.

As for the posting rate, I honestly have no idea.

Man some of those forums have a lot of junk... how does someone actually keep up? I find arstechnica being too huge... each section is its own world.
This place is big enough for me. It dwarfs the other three forums I frequent by a factor of 10.
Neowin, although they USED TO BE Window-oriented, has tilted ever-so-slightly towards the Mac a bit. It's small, but growing.

Looks like about 1.785 million posts or so as of right now. Not too shabby
How can there be a thread about huge forums, but no mention of slashdot?

700,000+ registered users
50 million pages served per month.

I don't think Slashdot quite qualifies as a forum. You can comment on posted stories but there are no forums like this one there (thankfully).
/. practically is...
