I know the answer but that will just start more shit.

I have never gotten the forum wars thing.

If you don't like it here, there are other forums.

Damn. So freakin' weird.

Thanks for clarifying. And just to reiterate, I'm not a Union fanboy. I'm more of a snowboarding fanboy. And my hygiene is pretty solid. No shit on my dick. I just checked.

So the question remains: how many people do read this forum?

Yes I am cleaning house. There are some so called hijackers here who are actually making good posts. Carry on.

Others, just here for whatever vendetta it is, I am not really interested. EL is better anyway right? Bye...

Questionable reasoning on that one...

If I google "snowboarding forum", and the #1 link is to this site, is that proof that this forum is the definitive online snowboarding forum, or that its name is the closest to my query?

i didn't google 'snowboarding forum' i googled 'are union bindings good?'

matty19 · 11-08-2012, 12:53 PM

And your results reflected the sites that most often had those words in that order. That's ALL your results reflected.

Again, how many people read this forum? If it's as prevalent a voice in snowboarding as previous posters are implying, shouldn't there be an opportunity to engage in honest conversations that can impact product development? Why waste time on flame wars and the like?

snowboardingfourm.com
Traffic Rank: 256,503 United States Flag Traffic Rank in US: 76,099

Easyloungin.com
Traffic Rank: 257,965 China Flag Traffic Rank in CN: 57,016

As far as forums go, you can see this forum ranks higher than EL on an international basis and in the US. EL gets a majority of it's traffic from China. Judging by the spam I've seen there, not surprised.

We've already seen this site have a huge influence on a company's bottom line fwiw.

Hopefully a positive impact! Which company?
