Well, I'm probably "active" in a couple dozen... mostly computer related info/support sites. None have much of the "sense of community" that we share here, so it's easy not to get trapped all day in those forums -- some I visit only once a month or so. If I mentioned str8's in any of these groups I'd get flamed for being OT. Currently, this site is where I spend most of my computer leisure time, seconded by a gardening forum.

I used to be pretty active in several satellite TV sites but they all got in trouble with "pirating" and most were shut down. One site had over 90,000 members and a huge community spirit element... we probably could have had a sub-forum there related to str8's as they had a whole gagle of OT forums. (One thread in their "BS" forum had over 5,000 replies!) Unfortunately the good died with the bad.
