I have found each board has their own flavor. A lot of them simply are not as busy.
However, that said, most seem to try and be more business related, so they move very slow. But... I have also found most boards very welcoming and friendly. So I guess it depends on what you are looking to accomplish.
If you are actually IN this business, and have some assets, or skills, that people are interested in. All boards are beneficial. If you are just some McAffiliate working on your weekend beer money between orders to super size fries. Then GFY is the ONLY board you need.
It's not a slam on GFY. I love the entertainment GFY brings. Simply stating the fact of the matter.
GFY is a fast moving board in almost all forums. But, there is a lot of trivial bullshit, and chicken little's posting this week's tube, to end of the industry, blah blah blah threads. Threads barely stay on page one for an hour, if that. So there is always something new.
The other boards can be more professional, and you get more business done. Those who contact you have money, or something worth offering. Most business actually closes or you develop a relationship.
I have not noticed hate for the ole GFY. But it's amusing all the same.
