While it is possible to accurately describe what occurs (or doesn't) on boards in terms of posting activity, ranking boards on 'quality' isn't possible. Quality ultimately depends on opinions and variables such as value, things that vary from individual to individual as well as situation to situation.
Every board is it's own unique social networking circle (or strives to be), each with strengths and weaknesses. You want hype or a shitstorm started you post certain places, you want serious discourse and discussion you may very well post someplace else. There is value in both of these, but they aren't often found in same place.
Wal-Mart can be considered a 'quality' general merchandise store. Products might not be the greatest, but they cover alot and their target market responds to that utility. You wouldn't go there to buy fur coat or new mobo for example. But then again, Cartier doesn't carry Rubbermaid and potting soil, nor does TigerDirect...
