    You may be familiar with these people: http://www.boards.us/

    I'm not sure if your .ie log-in will work.

    boards.us and boardsgroup are being taken down for reconstruction, with plans to merge with boards.ie in the future.

    That's exciting. Boards.us really wasn't as busy as boards.ie!

    I think boards.ie works so well because Ireland is such a small country.

    it just wouldnt work in the US. I belong to a couple of boards that are as busy but they're more specialised.

    If there was just one main forum for the US, i'd hate to see their verison of After Hours :eek: how diverse and mental some of the views would be...

    It would also be like standing under a waterfall. there'd be a deluge of posts.

    Craigslist.com seems to be the popular community board for us here in the US.
