Ah how I remember Stratics from my UO days, and the IRC from when they actually had the UO volunteer program.
I am glad to see they picked up having an SL portal.
Mostly I say judge a place not by who may be a moderator or a content manager, Stratics for one is bigger than one person, unless you are Jhariden. Judge it based on the people that make up the community, and the willingness they have to make it a worthy place. So far I would say the SL Stratics is off to a good start.

of course they do employ the Mafia... the guy (marcelus wallace) is bragging about it on a podcast.

I left TSO when they switched to using Stratics, I've no interest in returning to that steaming pile of crud for SL.

From: Lewis Nerd Stratics is the most well known and highly respected website for online gamers. It represents the 'industry standard' and the pinnacle of quality.
Stratics sees the potential of SL, and has decided to add it to its vast portfolio of games represented, both officially and unofficially. [and later] Considering that Stratics is the biggest and most popular MMORPG multi-games forum site on the web,
Lewis- Making absolute statements like the above seems to be a very effective way to get people to disagree with you, which I hope wasn't your original intent. From my own vantage point, http://www.allakazam.com has provided more in-depth and helpful content for the other MMO's I frequent, while stratics is hit-or-miss depending on the MMO. I do visit stratics.com from time to time though... and it's nice to see SecondLife appearing in more and more venues out there. It doesn't need to be the biggest, most popular, most respected anything to be relevant, helpful and appreciated by the people that use it... regardless of how many that may be.

From: Toy LaFollette I didnt use the UO forums... Stratics was a fantastic place for the game info. UO is very involved and thats why I used Stratics. I was forced by EA to use Stratics as a TSO forum. Which forums I managed to get myself banned from a few times due to speaking my mind rather than be a cheerleader  Im in several forums for SL now and simply see no reason to go to yet another one. /me remembers toy in some of the TSO forums...AVHerald heh
