I really don't have time to visit multiple boards. Right now I'm on 3 different boards and not really a very active member of any of them, but I do try to share information when I can.
I don't know if typing actual board names is allowed. I'll do it anyway and I guess they'll get replaced by x's or something.
Here's my assessment of the boards (based only on my assumptions, with no empirical data):
****
Has the most traffic, the most reviews and the most advertizers.
Also has the most shills and the most assholes, causing many threads to deteriorate into useless arguments and pissing contests.
Has a separate section for classified listings, but nobody really follows any guidelines for posting in different sections.
Has a very limited mailbox size.

Traffic and number of reviews is growing. Advertizing from major agencies but not some of the lesser known ones and only a few indys.
Not nearly as many shills and most members can state opposing positions without feeling like they have to start a war if someone disagrees.
A very friendly, seemingly tight-knit core group, who have invited me to several parties/get-togethers. My apologies for not making many of them. The invites truly are appreciated.
Not a lot of info on indys, unless they were once agency girls and went indy from there.
Some great guys who gather stats and put together top SP lists.
This site runs very slow for me. Slow enough that its the last site I visit because it just takes too long to load pages.

Probably the least traffic and reviews but growing. Not much agency advertizing, more indy advertizing.
Probably the best board for info on backpage advertizers.
A surprising amount of bragging, bickering and pissing contests for a small group of guys who are mostly seeing the same lower priced ladies.
One benefit is that I can browse reviews there without having to log in.
Anybody have any insight?
Is there any way to get around visiting all 3 boards or do most people do the same thing?
