Well, you have a biased group here. But I'll try be as unbiased as possible. I like the members here a lot more, a lot kinder and better mods IMO (not sucking up, I have an account over there too). However, I do think they have MORE members, which offer more responses but these guys here do a darn good job at helping out as much if not more. I only go there if no one here knows the answer after about 2 days. (Which is rare). Organization is a lot better here too I think. :) Just my thoughts.

I'm with ogacon. I don't like the membership over at the other place, hence why I have over 4,000 posts here ;P

Same, I like the members here better, but the overall site better over their, some over the members can be real jerks too.

Members are jerks cause there is no moderation. Or little that I have seen. And wouldn't having better members be one of the main reason for a better overall site ;)

it's the old argument quality over quantity.

Macrumors has more people hence large userbase to get answers from. Well in theory. But macforums has more informed and nicer people. Yeah that's why I'm here. And not there.

I never signed up over there because of how a lot of their regulars treat people. I figured I simply didn't need that nonsense in my life. I was really happy when I found this place!

I found this first, and I am glad for that. Had I found that first, I don't think I woulda ever kept looking.
