Okay, lets build some statistics about forums here and try to keep it as unbiased as possibly in regards to software. If you wish to participate, please answer the questions below. I will take the results and put them in a database and post the results when I am done. I will also post this on several other communities to get the information from as many places as possible. If others want to post this on forum related communities please do so and forward the results to me. The more information we get the better ideas we can get for making forums profitable and successful in the future.
