    Well john i said the Fact.
    Although you may feel bad. ;)
    Now you may ban me no probs for my statement.
    But i never saw as many members as DP so i said that.

    100 active menbers? How do you come up with that number? There are over a 100 active members in the last 12 hours alone. And for the most part when forums define "active members" they do so in months, not hours.

    So you are just lying for the sake of lying, or do you something out of it?

    No, we tend not to ban people unless they really ask for it. You have spammed the forums, you've abused your signature and otherwise made a nuisance of yourself but we haven't banned you, have we?


    How old are you? Two? You never saw as many members as DP has, so you decided to lie about v7n? How does that make sense? Who is your crack dealer, and when is he going to give you the "good stuff"?


    Stop your fabricating. Nobody said that.

    And trying to pit one forum against another is just stupid. I'm a member here, and Shawn is a member there. The two forums share a lot of members, and neither forum "owns" members.

    Currently Active Users: 917 (29 members and 888 guests) @ v7n
    Is the Active member's more than 100? [This is what i meant]
    and now i dont like comparing both the forums and you proving that v7n is better.
    Thats it.

    917 tends to be more than 100 in most parts of the world.

    I Clearly said about the number of active members, who post and are in forum, not the guests.
    Hope you get me.

    Amit, that number indicates the number of people currently online and logged in.

    On DP forums, where it says :
    Do you seriously think that is the number of people logged in right now?

    Amit, do you think that ALL of DP's acrtive members are now logged in? Or that all of v7n's active members are now logged in? The number you reference is members online, not active membership.

    It is totally wrong to compare forums and i know intention of Nintendo was not to generate such kind of rude posts.

    Each forum has its own unique qualities you should not compare them.... IMHO

    Sitepoint -> Good Commerical
    Digitalpoint -> Fast friendly
    v7n -> quality of seo discussions
    webmasterworld -> just a leader

    Even i am guest on WW but their strict discipline has produced only "quality".

    And we know John Scoot is professional person and have good eye on SEO topics.
    Shawn Hogan is not seo master but quality programmer :)

    So don't compare just love and learn lessons :)

    Shawn does just fine with SEO. He kicks my ass traffic-wise and that's where it counts.

    Amit's pretty ******* stupid to have even said what he said and trying to pit forums against one another??.......... yes, I have to agree with John, he must be 2. He's been treated very well at v7n, I guess he just didn't like that it was noticed by mods that he links smilies in his posts to his sites (SPAM) :mad:

    It's quality not quantity that matters. ;)
