The largest forum I have ever seen is forums.digitalpoint.com. I didn't think it could get much better than that.

Did you look at the link in the post above.  That forum dwarfs Digital Point, at least 10 times bigger  Cheesy

I'm more interested in the hardware they use for a site that busy.  It seems very responsive even with 3000+ members active.

One of the largest forums I ve seen is http://www.yabiladi.com/forum/ with over 250.000 members I don't like digitalpint forum the moderators will ban you for anything. They banned me from the forum because i was going to each and every forum and readin all the posts, they said that that was not allowed.
Their rules are not very clear, every day few people are getting banned from the forums.
You could get banned for signing your name or giving the url to another website.
Huh?

Is that a French language forum?  Also, what software does it use?

gaia has turned in to one huge spam haven though.  It's hardly like a regular functioning forum Wink
