    I give it a 7, a lot of interesting discussions anytime of the day and a lot of things to learn especially on webmastering side. Main pity is the number of scammers and potential scammers out in the open.

    I would give it an 8. It can be very slow (I live in the UK with a fairly decent net connection so I know its not my end), the site has lots of scammers, and the site also has a lot of people posting the same rubbish (use the search function)!!!!

    I only gave it a 5 cos it has gone way down hill over the last 6-8 months:

    - The load times are terrible and it crashes all to often.
    - Way to many scammers.
    - Way to many spammy websites and spammy posts.
    - Itrader dont work cos you get bad itrader from the other person for reporting a bad trader giving totally legit people a bad name just for reporting a bad trader.

    I just suffered from this myself I gave someone a bad itrader cos he let me down on 2 different orders, I gave him the second chance cos I am nice and he begged for for after letting me down the first time and I had to find somebody else to do it for me. But once I left him a bad itrader for letting me down on these 2 orders he then give me a bad itrader amking up some story of I took free article and something.

    Why should I get a bad itrader just cos he never provided me with what he said he would?

    I have been seriously put off this place lately between all the problems I listed the community is at an all time low IMO, yeah its good in the sence that there are loads of traders on here but the level of quality of the members here is absoluty terrible compared to 8 months ago.

    I'll give DP a 7. Love the community here, but load times are slow sometimes and there's way too many scammers.

    I would give an 8:

    DP looks great, it is very big and here are a lot of nice people.
    You are also allowed to have 4 signature links, which is great.
    I know in some others are only 2-3 allowed.
    And the user also can change the theme of the forum.

    But it is very slow - even on my fast computer, the site often is down,
    here is a lot of dublicte content and here are a lot of scammers and spammers.

    Rate DP on a scale from 1 to 10

    IMO, the answer depends on what you are trying to do.

    DP Rated:

    For buying everything cheap (some scams but always low prices)
    Rating = 8.5 to 10

    For sellers:
    Rating = ~1.5 to 6
    Your ads are free, if placed in the right section, but people with real money to spend are hard to find ;)

    For social and goofing off:
    Rating = 8 to 10

    Active forums with a wide variety of people from many countries. :)

    I voted a 7.0, I'd break it down further but I have 2,119 threads to go through since I last visited GC for more than 5.57 minutes.

    8 - Their servers could use some capacity upgrades. I think the overall look should be redesigned; it's boring to stare at all day.

    8/10

    There are so many little kids/dumb adults here that are annoying and useless that make the forum go slow which makes it even worse.

    I'd give it a 9.5 just because there is a small number of moderators (although they do a superb job, there are more needed).
