XXXManager, if you are going to compare your ranking to that of sextrackers...at least rank the way they rank.

In a sense I think we do.
TGPs are all about VIEWS. They show how "good" the TGP is by showing that people SEE it. Thats not really how good the TGP is but they figure that a busy TGP must be "better" in a sense that those with no views.

In a forum, its not only about VIEWS but about the comminuty and its involvement - hence REPLIES and POSTS. Views in many boards are also generated by searchengine spiders, and in some boards, bored people that have nothing to do with the indstry who have nothing bette to do than read what they think is a "juicy" thread with some naked ladies showing in it. This is true for some boards at least. Wouldn't you agree?

Note btw, that even if we ranked based on views (which we don't think is better than replies), the ranks would not change much.
