In a vain attempt to drag back onto topic as others have done, I....no wait....I can't add anything to what's already been said about the sites. The site opinions make complete sense. Forums are a seperate subject and as has been pointed out, again each of those have their plus points. Kilome's assessment of why people often stay in that they 'click' with others is spot on; the rest is down to content and activity which will always drive traffic, both interacting and lurking.
By the way - as lurkers are mentioned a bit on this forum, I have to say that I have an element of sympathy for at least a proportion of them (and I include myself); it can be hard to jump in when you know nothing and I find myself gravitating towards trying to at least say something in posts less P4P related right now. The New Members thread is a great idea - an easy way to draw people further in through interaction beyond a 'hello' back should you want to (back to Kilome's point). I've enjoyed myself so far, and thanks for that.
