CO and DL Boards almost same size
Is'nt interesting that both the CO and DL boards vary by less than 1% in the numer of posts? Also the number of topics are very similar. Yet NW has about half and UA is four times larger. Why don't the numbers reflect the relative size of the airlines? I'm counting on you Doc to come up with a link on their relative sizes and save me time!

I wouldn't go by the number of posts as a gauge of Airline size or quality.
It's more a factor of how many flyertalkers fly that particular airline. The Continental and Delta Flyertalk forums have been about the same size since the begining of FlyerTalk.
Also, not all posts are positive, so a forum with lots of posts could be a bad sign at times.

Boomer, I considered that. But NW is larger (according to some) and has half the posts of CO. And in my experience NW gets alot of negative press. Still interesting these statistics.
