Since we're discussing Golf Forums.........
My favorite is GEA. Been a member there for many years and it's my first stop in the morning for the same reason that many have made FGI their first stop. FGI is a close second as I've made many friends here and the information is very much the same but in a different format.
Golfdiscussions sucks as they had/have some power hungry idiots that run that site. I also spend a bit of time at Golfbiztalk but am not a fan of the environment there.
Golfwrx is likely a great forum but I'm not a fan of viruses and they seem to get them way too often. I don't go there for that reason.

GEA used to be the main golf site for me, with FGI a close 2nd. However, about 9 months ago or so, a bunch of people migrated over from the Golf Channel forum, and the site completely changed. It just became toxic with all the negativity and antagonistic attitudes. I stopped visiting there about that time, just to save my sanity. It's too bad, as I was there from the very beginning, and made some good friends there.
So FGI is now #1 for me. It's much more civil here, and there is still a bit of component talk, which is what I am really into.

Can't argue that the closing of the Golf Channel board was a bad thing, but the GEA is not that bad as a result at this pointThere have been a few posters who were given a vacation or banned as a result of their behavior and rightfully so. The world doesn't need Ken Pitts type stupidity on every golf discussion board.

I go to 4-5 daily but none, none would I post on more than a few times while there. Most everything that can be discussed, is and after awhile you are basically reading and posting the same things. Some of the sites the posters are really looking for a argument and some sites are so bland it is boring. Sites I go to usually GEA, Golf rewound, Golf Discussions, FGI and while I no longer go there GolfBizTalk was one I spent a lot of time on. There are others, but I don't post on those sites, I just go there to see the different threads and if there is anything of interest.
