saints report

Just went to see what the saints report site was all about. I read their thread about the poll. They must really think that this site is second rate. Kinda pisses me off. The want to win the poll bad. I've voted a bunch of times. Go vote if you haven't. One of B&G's former owners is a member there??

Over the years I've tried all of the related Saints sites and have to say that IMO B&G site here is the best..
I placed my vote for B&G..

For any SR visitors I would say, hey, we're all Saint fans! For the love of Gawd there are few enough of us that we should avoid contention.

Do know a couple of facts-
SR uses a hack to make their numbers appear larger as to the number online. Where it says signed on, that isn't an actual number at the time. That is an ongoing number. Cookies stick there (without asking) and basically are permanent. These means once you are logged on and then leave you are still counted as logged on. Here at BnG the number is much smaller but is actual.
BnG actually generates much more traffic on the front page than SR does. SR basically just copies stuff you find from other sources. BnG has original articles and well written takes that many people like to read.

I'm not a Mod here or have anything to do with running the place. I lurk and post at more than the 4 Saint sites on the SI poll. There are some good people at them all. I have never had a warning muchless ban at SR. Personally, I don't do much at there since you have to scroll through so much chaff to find worthwhile info (repeated over many times). I end up here most often because you can banter back and forth, have a better sense of the other posters, and not have threads filled with a bunch of useless comments or icons.

So all for the fleur! But keep on clicking LOL
