Taking into consideration the size of the internet, and ammount of forums out there?

Very cool.. Kinda weird looking at the ones above & below us though.

Agreed

I guess I am too used to the massive size

The fact that we are in single diggets amazes me lol

Thanks to NS especially!

Gaia Online is number one eh? I've been there, encountered many extreemely rude teenagers who never heard of common decency and left abruptly.

That must explain the somewhat random cardiac arrests this forum suffers now and then.

I guess I am too used to the massive size
Agreed.

But being massive increases chances of suffering from heart attack, so maybe its not all good.

Bah! Let's get to number one, eveyone quick make ten more e-mail accounts and ten more user accounts on the forum!

EDIT:

Wait, Jolt's on page three. Not number three. Never mind then. :p

Several people in my animation course last year frequented this Gaia thing. They tried to get me involved but the bright lights and cutesy anime pseudoculture made me gag and spit, so I went back to Nationstates and Seibertron.

And you never get to know anyone.

General is like a Podunk town. People come and go, but the same core of posters can always be seen, debatin crap, and spittin in the tobacco tin.

Those other massive ones are like LA. You see one guy, and you never see him again.

I mean really. Make a thread about the letter "K" and see what you get.

At least we're sarcastic about stuff that makes sense.

Scratch that.

At least our per capita sarcasm isn't through the roof like theirs. Yeah that's it.

EDIT: I accidently used "theres" instead of "theirs." I would've been flamed for that in Gaia.

I was going to go try visiting the Christian forums (they are like ranked 6th or something like that)

But I guess their forum is not firefox and or *nix friendly

I open the page and firefox startes eating up 95+ percent of my cpu and all my ram and just sits there

Basterds I have never seen anything like it before

They must know only athiests use Linux lol :p

Jesus H Christ. The Gaia forums are...nasty. Imagine the Jolt Spam forum. Then multiply by one hundred. Then add in a bout of depression we've never even imagined. Add in a large spoonful of racism, and a lorry-load more of depression, and you've got the General forum of Gaia. The prosecution enters Peoples Evidence 1 and 2:

wow. Gaia sucks.
seems to be nothing more than a congregation of whiney teenagers moping about pointless relationship issues which, if they had a collective spine between them, wouldn't even be a problem.
or, at least, that was my first impression. ;)

and to think i made an avatar there once and was going to post... what a fool i'd have been. NS > Gaia *nods*

Jeez, Gaia sucks ass. Not so much the posting, my mind blanked that out, but the Goddamn COLOUR SCHEME!!1!:headbang:

However, many times jolt crashes a minute, it still is preferable; nay, infinitely preferable, to Gaia. *feels unclean for even looking at it*

for some reason after looking at it i get the urge to see if i can get banned from them.
i doubt it's actually possible and even if it is, it would be to show them how dodgy they are

fair enough, assembly is basically a human readable form of machine code, the 1s and 0s that computers work on. higher level programming languages get turned into assembly code, then machine code. you get to learn some of the easier stuff about it in second year at uni, or at least in australian unis
