IMO....  most who inhabit this place no longer bother with the other board.  I'm sure you'll pretty quickly work out for yourself which of 'em suits you best.   

I find this place a very helpful community.

IMO this one is more "techie" to use your word… seems like a half dozen dudes who have "seen it all" that lurk around here, along with a nice variety of others from beginners through experienced.

The other board, again IMO, seems like a crowd more keen to just pay someone to do the work for them, rather than DIY. Maybe I'm wrong.

Biggest plus for me, no advertisements intertwined into content here.

I think that a lot of people here were forever banned from the other place. 

I know I was. [cheeky]

For me, the forum is made by the people.  I'm not saying the other forum doesn't have good people, but the BEST people are here.

I will never visit the "Other Board" because, well even their "Lifetime Members" get nuked.

You have been banned for the following reason:
Spamming the Board

Date the ban will be lifted: Never

I was a member on the old board before everyone migrated over here... This place feels like home.  Sure, sometimes there is infighting and pregnant doging, but there is a great group of guys (and gals) here.

When you post that video *LITERALLY* in every single post on that forum, you get banned for life for spamming. Don't ask me how I know...I have my sources.

What surprised me was how long it took before someone posted that link.

Some of that content is a little out of date now (it has been more than 5 years!) ... but that Higginwhateverhisnameis - is still getting money out of us  [laugh] [roll] [evil] :-\ 8)

i have been on many different forums for many different things. different bikes, different sports, different cars and trucks. this place is the best community of any other forum, and has the most knowledgable and friendly members by a long shot. so much so that i often find myself asking questions about non-monsters here too, because i can't be bothered with the other forums.

the only thing that annoys me about this place is the constant amusement some people find in saying ``the beat with two backs'' instead of make the beast with two backs. i mean, we are make the beast with two backsing bikers, right? must be a really old, inside thing. dad-humor. ;D

I remember when the other site changed and I could not find all the familiar names.  It took me about a year before I found DMF and saw the familiar names from the other site.

I find that I hardly if ever visit my other bike, the triumph's forum.  I like DMF.  I have learned a lot and enjoy reading most of the topics.  I also love the parts and gears for sell.  I haven't had a single transaction issues so far and really appreciate it.

Thank you to the person that manages this forum!  Thank you!

I'm fairly certain that anyone who was around for the great crash of 04(?) has been banned from TOB.  [laugh]

They have the filter turned on in their profile. The forum changes it automatically.

I like this forum too, but if I had $1 for every time I read a statement like this on another forum, I'd have like...$7.   [cheeky]

I had to work real hard to be banned.  They made me a Super Mod or something like that against my will.
