I am a memember of this board-- one of many I post to-- http://hipoint.7.forumer.com/index.php I noticed something wierd--- 1172 members... 44515 Articles... here-- 946 members, 5218 threads... I guess this is misleading, as we switched to the same type of board they did--- I am curious to see when they switched, and count the numbers in the same time frame.. me, I like 'em both..

I am a memember of this board-- one of many I post to-- http://hipoint.7.forumer.com/index.php I noticed something wierd--- 1172 members... 44515 Articles... here-- 946 members, 5218 threads... I guess this is misleading, as we switched to the same type of board they did--- I am curious to see when they switched, and count the numbers in the same time frame.. me, I like 'em both.. We did not switch to the same forum type they did at all, they are running a free forums engine called PHPbb, HPotD is running a premium and expensive forum engine called vBulletin. the difference is unbeleivable, you would have to be a admin to see it all, but trust me, its like comparing a skateboard to a ferrarri. Our full stats at the moment are also "Members: 946 · Threads: 5,219 · Posts: 65,687", im assuming that forums is using "Articles" as posts, becuase the number of threads they have just dosn't add up to 44,000. So in reality, the difference is us - HPotD 946 members and 65,687 posts Hi-Point Firearms 1172 members and 44,515 posts so although they have more members, we are more active anyway, stats do not matter, there is nothing stopping you enjoying both forums

I get more entertainement out of here!! Keep it up!
