What are the largest forums on the net?

[Miramonti]

I was doing some research on different cities and came across virtualtourist.com, and was amazed to see it had over 550k members!

What other megaforums are on the net?

 

[Kalvin00]

There's a list somewhere...waiting for it to be posted..

offtopic.com is another megaforum, 3rd on the list I think

ATOT is like, 5th or 6th

Fixed. AT is so much more than ATOT.

550? Damn. When the hell did that happen? I still remember a dead as to when someone would sign on as the 100k

It's hard to judge something like this. In any case, number of posts is a bad metric. So it total users.

#11 by posts, #144 sorted by members

AT is #19. That is sorted by posts not members.

EDIT: Make that #144...good job 95SS, I missed the sorting capability.

 

[HardcoreRobot]

iirc, AT has also done some housecleaning before.. not sure if the other have

 

[Miramonti]

DevianArt, 5 million members. :Q All of a sudden AT seems like a small town in cyberspace.

[chrisms]

That makes me feel so small. I'm only the coolest member of #19? What good does that do me

I personally like the organization and size of AT. OffTopic is way too big, after you make a post, by the time you refresh there's already 9 posts below it and the thread has already been hijacked.

Yeah, I like the layout of AT, but some other features can be upgraded.

I never knew DA was so huge, they could make their own country! Looks like MySpace will get the jump on it though.
