Hi Dopers, What are you other favorite bulletin boards? I’m more interested in the ones that have similar outlook like SD, not the threaded conversation, which I find is not easy to read. ---

I routinely post on assorted MSN Communities bulletin boards. Got a site there of my own, for that matter. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by nobodyimportant \* > \*\*What are G’dope and NADS? Can ya provide links? 🙂 \*\* Sorry about that! [G’dope](http://pub31.ezboard.com/bgdope) (for the antipodean Doper contingent) [NADS](http://pub75.ezboard.com/bnads) (for non-American Dopers). Neither of those boards are exclusively for those mentioned, but the threads revolve around topics of interest to those groups. So basically my life revolves around the Straight Dope, even when I’m not at SDMB. ---

[Mine](http://www.cyburbia.org/forums). 😃 It’s an urban planning/built environment related bulletin board, using vBulletin with most features enabled. There are about 200 messages posted a day, with about 60% of them being [off-topic](http://www.cyburbia.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=23). Stop on by! ---

The reason I asked was mainly because I’ve not been to many bulletin boards myself. SD is great but during the peak hours I can’t even get it to display. Other times it’s way too slow. I wanted to know if there are more boards like SD that don’t entertain focused discussion like Eruopean Musicians or Romance Novel fans. Something for general public dealing with culture and society, off-the-wall topics, and little bit of everything. ---

[www.metropolis.com](http://www.metropolis.com) has an interesting message board. It’s geared toward Americans living in Japan, but still very interesing to read. ---

[Urban75](http://urban75.net/vbulletin/index.php) It’s similar to SDMB. It’s based in the UK, and most members are Brits. Also, it has more of a liberal/leftist tendency than SDMB. There are very few conservatives on the Board. I don’t spend that much time there, but i like it. ---

mhendo, I too post at u75 (under a different name), it’s a good board, though I don’t agree with much of the politics there (anarchist militant trade unionist even the odd Stalinist there), being a centrist/social democrat. ---
