    the number is the rank according to Alexa.com which uses the data obtained from millions and millions using their Alexa Tool bar (which I love because of the popup blocker)

    Is ranks the site based on Traffic, and Page Veiws per Vistior

    as well as post on the forums.

    :D

    I still think ECA's the place to go for intelligent questions and answers.... It seems like most of the conversation there is helpful, but they do tend to flame people with dumb or newbie-type questions which sucks.

    It seems like all the questions at CAF are the same, "Which subs are louder?" :).

    All of the forums have the brands that they'll have a boner over for a while, then switch. SIN is different though, as long as eD runs that site, they're always going to have that bias. I still like SIN though, you just gotta come to expect eD to be godlike there.

    I am sorry, but you think ECA is a good site, I am going to have to ask you to leave :p

    ECA was/is the sole reason I created this site, they are the rudest SOB's on the planet, and once I beat them in traffic and Membership, I will call this site a success//

    off all the site on the internet, that is the site I despise the most

    Did i not say IMO...nope, guess i should have :). I agree there are some rude people there, but there are also some very knowledgable people there as well. I would also say more flaming goes on at CAF than it does on ECA. Just my observations though Mike :).

    well another reason is the required resigation, like I said, any site that MAKES me sing in just to VIEW it, is not worth my time to go see it

    I agree. I just forget about what I wanted to look at, and move on. :angry:

    Im tired of that everywhere....It would be one thing if they had the top sub on the market, but they do NOT. There sub is a good one, but it my book just above average maybe...

    Either way I think I like the people on this site the best. Its not nearley as childish as CAF and the other sites, although I still do visit CAF the most, Im not sure why, I just think it has something to do with it being the first site I ever really went to (well forum), but I find myself posting less and less over there these days.

    I think this site will stay good as long as we keep active objective moderators. No mods that have their own company...so that way when something bad gets posted about the company the thread just magically doesnt disappear. (cough Seath cough...No I mean like SI and ED..and at least seath isn't a poon. :p )

    I called that place home for several years. Unfortunately many there that I called friends all of a sudden turned on me unprovoked. I think it was jealousy due to my friendship with Dan Wiggins or something. Since then I haven't liked the place much, which is too bad since several of them were great people to know, specifically Attomic, Musthavmusic, and a couple others.

    It might of been your slanderous defemation of ED Products in general. I'm not really sure.

    :unsure:

    <_< <_< <_< <_< <_<


    They have people over there that have more experience with actual products than you could ever imagine.....

    they don't take too kindly to spam or people who make preconceived notions about products they've never had experience with......

    they also don't think the HSL is the best sub in the world... <_< <_<

    I think you may have misread my posts then. I have many times said that they make good drivers. All I did was say that the A wasn't in the same league as the Brahma. But some people for some reason read into my comment that the A was the worse sub in the world or something, and got defensive. But please provide a link of "slanderous defemation" toward ED's products by me. I very much doubt that you could find it.

    We really have gone way off topic here though. I don't mind discussing this, but maybe we should start a new topic rather than hijack this one.

    Even though we have mods here that own their own companies, if they ever shown to be abuse thier powers they will be delt with by me, I see EVERY acion they preform as moderators, weather it is editing a post, delting it, or what have you, it is ALL reported to me on my Admin Screend by this software, so posts can not "disaappear" with out me seeing it

    I have not let uncalled for posts about any company, weather I dis like them or not go on for too long, if there are real concerns that are presenting I will let them go on forever, weather it has a negivte inpact or not, but just people post "Brand XX suck" and not supporting that, those topics will be closed, or deleted

    Says you, but the numbers dont back that uo :rolleyes:
    All I have to say to that is :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Code:
    They have people over there that have more experience with actual products than you could ever imagine.....
    
    they don't take too kindly to spam or people who make preconceived notions about products they've never had experience with......
    
    they also don't think the HSL is the best sub in the world... 
    Most of them are just like the Children at CAF, with No product knowlege but they like the THINK they do,

    Most forums dont take a spam kindly, even though ECA is SPMAMED be and continues to this day with Email, logged in to my account I singed up with over a year ago, they will deny it, but ooohhh well

    And i never said HSL was the best sub in the world, but they are not bad either

    That you Steven, now maye you can teach the New Guy some RESPECT for other people topic so he can learn the differance between the REPLY and the NEW TOPIC buttons

    I spilt this, so all of your other posts are in a new topic, lets keep this on on track

    How can you despise a site? Good Lord man, it's not as if every member on ECA was out to get you. I mean, come on Michael, you're an adult. Time to get over it.

    Take this as constructive criticism. I don't like all the members on ECA, but it's certainly one of the most informative sights, has a wide variety of people including manufacturers, and doesn't have the BS most of the major forums do. It's the one I call "home" and most likely always will.
