My personal ranking of message boards.

1. S.I.
2. Raging Bull
3. Motley Fool
4. ----
5. ----
6. ----
7. ----
8. ----
9. ----
10. Yahoo Message Boards

SI has the best mix of quantity, friendliness and intelligence. It's a great community of people.

Raging Bull is growing and has smart, friendly people, but a little less knowledgeable.

To me, the Motley Fool is filled with nice people who don't know much about stocks. You know, a lot of, "What's a P/E mean?" MFers probably graduate to Raging Bull or S.I.

Finally, I have frequently referred to the Yahoo message boards as the digital sewer of the internet superhighway. I stand by that characterization.

Trev,
I just registered for Motley last night. Not enough lurking there yet, since it was my first night over there. So I can not give you an informed opinion about them either. But again, since it is a free registration site, they also seemed to have a lot of MM's & spammers. But it is good to see some of the differing opinions. You know what is really great to see, on the GNET threads, all of them, there is really no negative info about GNET. A few less bullish comments, but that's about it. All the MM's are bashing other stocks. I was once told that there is no such thing as too much info. So I do read most of them. ALL are Go GNET. While I'm at it, I'll give you my prediction of a lucky closing number of 174 for today.

Regards,
Joe.

OT- I hear Auric is up to his old tricks on the vdat board. Those guys dont know him yet, and its pretty funny to read. Rumor has it that SI suspended his posting priv. for being such a jerk. Check it out.
