We keep tabs on everything. And as you point out, the various metrics don't always move in unison -- sometimes we can have reduced overall traffic, yet post & thread activity remains steady or goes up. (Indicates more member activity vs. visitor activity). Or vise versa.

Thanks. One main difference is the big sites are mostly owned by one company based in Toronto whose business is buying up all kinds of forums. The sites they buy tend to get pretty ad-heavy and a bit cluttered. IC is owned by them now. Not sure about the other.

Although, I must say, attempting to use this site on a mobile phone (pda, smartphone) it is pretty rough.
I use the non-mobile skin, and it actually works just fine in 2 different browsers on my tiny old android 2.x phone.
