This looks like it's just a forum. It's certainly not as big as Cable Forum from looking at them. Secretlondon 17:43, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think your facts need to be reviewed Secretlondon, Cable Forum only has = 23,377 Members and CableHell (ntl:hell) have 31,462 registered members, no way is CF bigger than CableHell!

Cable Forum= Total Posts: 871,919 and CableHell= Total Posts: 268,468 posts

Facts speak for themselves!

Secret London is right - Cable Forum is the bigger forum out of the two.

Forum size does not just go off membership numbers - Looking at both forums - Cable Forum has more than half a million more posts than ntlhell (cablehell). Thus, Cable Forum is the bigger forum.

ntlhell also appears to have cookie sessions which time out after 6 hours, which gives the impression the forum is very active, there is still people showing online from several hours ago.

I see the CF bad boy brigade has swooned upon this article, let's see ....

1) This looks like it's just a forum. It's certainly not as big as Cable Forum from looking at them.

a) I'm sure you have made useless comments about the ntl:hell article before, CableHell may not have as many posts as CF but is regularly cited as a source by news outlets such as the BBC, The Guardian and The Times etc etc, Secondly, now this just may be me?, but, CF is JUST a forum.

-- If anyone has made a useless comment it is you. Looking at both sites, CF and CH, CH appears to be just a forum, CF looks like it is news based as well as a forum. Just because a site is cited everywhere doesn't still make it the biggest. If indeed cablehell site is plastered everywhere and gets the media attention you are so boasting about, how come cablehell has a very small total post count towards other related sites? 217.44.154.191 14:40, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

b) ...and

-- If this is the case then its not as active as it first appears then is it? Doh. 217.44.154.191 14:40, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have edited the article to reflect that Cablehell is not the biggest site, the article was inaccurate saying that it was. There are two much larger sites which cater for ex-ntl (Virgin Media) customers, they are DigitalSpy and Cable Forum and before I start being labelled a fan boy of DS or CF, I use neither. 217.44.154.191 14:40, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
